Useful but came in with broken off spine
Obviously if you are buying this you need it for writing or whatever it is you require a dictionary for. Came is ALMOST perfect condition with the exception of a torn off spine. I’ll be looking up how to reattach it properly, considering I purchased a hardback for durability this was a little bit of a let down. Otherwise it still works fine.

Solid classic choice for dictionary and thesaurus usage
The classic dictionary with bonus thesaurus. Easy to read and flip through to find the word you’re looking up. The thesaurus is built into the dictionary. You have the word, definition then the gray box that follows is the thesaurus. The hardback cover is durable and will last years with gentle usage. I use this with my kiddos homeschooling!

An Essential Book
Received a very good and brand new book from cocoblu Retail. It's a very essential book. It's very useful for learner's , students and those who loves English language. It gives definitions, examples, pronunciations for all words, synonyms, antonyms, irregular verb forms etc. Pronunciation is given for all three forms of irregular verbs (present, past and past participle. For example; Show - Showed - Shown. Pronunciation is given for these three). Letters are legible / not too big or not so small. Papers and printing are very good. Hardcover book is the best. Mass Market paper back books are low-cost but letters are too small to read. I have both. I recommend Hardcover.

Disappointed, the Oxford Concise is far better.
I bought this to have by my reading chair as I read a lot of American fiction and have to say I'm a little disappointed so far. Yes, it feels well-built and durable, the print is a good size and the pages are thick but it's slightly larger (see below for dimensions) than the Concise Oxford English Dictionary I have by my computer and only has 1/4 of the entries (60,000 compared to 240,000). Far too often, I'm having to refer to the COED later in the day to find out what a word means. It's entirley my own fault, I should have compared the information beforehand. My advice is, unless you have a specific need to buy this, to plump for the Oxford Concise dictionary. It's slightly smaller and the paper is thinner but it is a far better dictionary. This: 17.02 x 5.84 x 23.88 cm : 992 pages : 60,000 Entries COED 16.51 x 5.59 x 24.13 cm : 1728 pages : 240,000 Entries
