Oxford English Mini Dictionary Reviews

  • Teagan

    AWSOME! I loved it😃

  • Phoebe WildeWoolfOrWells

    Little bit dull, repetitive after a while. Very informative, no plot though.

    Of course I haven't litteraly *read* it :-) . I have it beside my desk and I highly recommend it, especially (I talk about what I know) for non-native scientists writing in English. Features some useful goodies, such as commonly mistaken words (both a dedicated list and reminders within each sensitive word's entry) and UK vs US spellings. I highly support using a physical English-only dictionary as your main aid, rather than using Google Translate and/or an English-something/something-English dictionary, and I think this "mini" dictionary is good in the sense that it will lead you away from using too complicated words (ergo, even if correct, if the word is not on this dictionary, you probably should be better using another one).

    Good for kids and adults. From school to university and for when playing scrabble or word games
