Книга: Macmillan English Dictionary Advanced Student Edition

The Macmillan English Dictionary For Advanced Learners of English is the most extensive dictionary we have seen that is written for non native speakers (ESL - English as a Second Language) learning English. It has definitions that are descriptive and often brilliantly simple and the definitions are written to be easily understood with a 2,500 word vocabulary. It has a simple grammar that is explained on the inside cover. The brilliantly simple definitions make this dictionary very useful for native speakers of English. There are no word histories. This is a very good dictionary for any school that teaches adults including Colleges and Junior Colleges. However, because the descriptive definitions define words like "sex" this dictionary is often not suitable for schools with younger students.
