The Oxford-Duden Pictorial Italian and English Dictionary
The Oxford-Duden Pictorial Italian and English
Dictionary, identifies over 29,000 objects by means of numbered illustrations
and offers at a glance their Italian and English terms. Based on the premise
that pictures can more clearly convey certain kinds of information, these
dictionaries present a list of vocabulary relating to a subject together with a
picture illustrating that subject. Each double-page spread links the words by
number to the picture situation drawn from every day life, while a multitude of
sections cover a broad range of subjects in the fields of science, medicine,
technology, industry, commerce, and arts and leisure, including astronomy,
automobiles, swimming, supermarkets, nuclear energy, nightclubs, and much more.
Both English and Italian words appear on the same page for easy use.
The dictionaries also provide fully alphabetized indices in
both languages which refer students not only to the various subjects and
contexts in which a word is used, but also to the correct translation and
vocabulary of the entire subject. This new addition to the successful
Oxford-Duden Pictorial range is completely up-to-date and includes the most
recent innovations in science and technology and the newest developments in the
language relating to all major fields of reference. It is an essential reference
for all students of Italian and will serve as an invaluable supplement to other
foreign language texts and guides.
