Head and shoulders above the rest - bar none!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I am a native Spanish speaker, professional translator and former Bilingual Media Coordinator for the California Legislature. Additionally, I have been in Spanish-language media for over 25 years. Throughout my career(s) I have reviewed numerous bilingual dictionaries and found them to be lacking. Without a doubt, Simon and Schuster's dictionary is the most complete and accurate resource of its kind. The dictionary includes the latest terminology, including idioms and regionalisms, elements of gramar and a guide to pronunciation for both English and Spanish. I firmly believe that Simon & Schuster's International Dictionary: English/Spanish, Spanish/English should be stocked in every book store and library, particularly those serving educational institutions.
The best I have seen!

I am a Spanish major at NCSU and have browsed many spanish dictionaries. This is an invaluable resourse. I took the hard cover edition, which is HUGE, to my final exam of my 400 level "methods and techniques in translation" class. Not only did I find everything I needed for a very technical exam, but many classmates needed to borrow my book. If you are a student, you need this dictionary. It is the most accurate Spanish dictionary I have seen.
My Friend and Companion!

I am a Spanish/English - English Spanish Certified Translator from Bogota, Colombia. I have worked in Mining, Pretroleum, Medical and Legal fields for more than 15 years, in Colombia and abroad and found this dictionary one of the most valuable tools in my daily life.This dictionary preserves the essence of the languages and interpret their mutations in usage without distorting them.When a colleague or a friend of mine is in the need of a meaning of a word, I usually say to them: "My favorite dictionary is here waiting for you, and remember, if you do not find it here, it does not exist."I highly recommend the Simon & Schuster's International Dictionary for its foreign acquisitions, national and regional variants, the variety of meanings given to certain terms, the many slogans, and even the vulgarisms which do not appear in other dictionaries. Furthermore, it is one of the most complete and up-to-date bilingual dictionary in the Spanish and English-speaking worlds.
