    Synopsis

    The best French–English dictionary available today is the Collins Robert French College Dictionary. Based on the acclaimed Collins Robert Unabridged Dictionary, it is up-to-date and highly reliable.

    • Easy to use: The attractive two-color layout provides maximum ease of access and enables effective communication for educational, business, and travel purposes. Usage levels are clearly indicated, with extensive examples of how the words are used in context. The style labeling system identifies the type of usage, whether formal, informal, literary, offensive, or dated. Specific meanings are clearly marked to guide you to the correct treatment. Also provided are pronunciations of all French and English words using the widely accepted IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) and a full guide to French pronunciations.

    • Constantly updated: The entire Collins dictionary range is updated regularly, to keep up with the ever-changing language. With change in language increasing at an ever-quickening pace, our updating keeps you on top of what's new in language today.

    • "French in Action:" Our unique supplement gives useful sentences and helps with letter-writing, telephone, e-mails and spoken French.

    • Other key features include verb tables, cultural entries on life and culture in French-speaking countries, and in-depth treatment of complex words.

    Here is a sampling of the new words in this edition:

    biométrie; bloguer; carte mémoire; cellule souche; clé USB; commerce équitable; grippe aviaire; islamophobie; phishing; pourriel
