I minored in French when I was in college. The other day I stumbled upon this book @ a local Border's store. I had to buy it! This is a complete visual reference for those wanting to learn French or wanting to brush up on what they know already, or simply lear new words. I have always been a visual person, and this dictionary helps me remember the vocabulary since i can match it up to a picture.
The best thing about this dictionary is that it covers almost every topic imaginable, topics not even my French textbooks would cover such as health, clothing, services, shopping, food, studies, work, transportation, sports, leisure and the environment.
It covers such details such as computer and camera parts, to the positions in a football game, or members of a rock band. At the end of the book there's a list of useful phrases in french for everyday use.
I recommend this wonderful book. Kudos to DK publishing!!!
