Overview

"The most authoritative, up-to-date, and easy-to-use compact dictionary available, the Oxford Minidictionary is now completely revised and expanded. The Third Edition offers over 40,000 entries and more than 45,000 definitions, and includes many new words and phrases such as Tessa, autogenic, ninja, and couch potato. Pronunciation guidance is provided for difficult words, and each page is clear and easy-to-read, with a minimum of abbreviations and special symbols. In addition, the Oxford Minidictionary contains a new supplement for word-game players--consisting of two-letter words, words with a ""q"" not followed by a ""u,"" and words beginning with ""x""--that is especially useful for crossword puzzles and Scrabble games. Helpful appendices--which include notes on correct English usage and punctuation, and lists of countries, chemical elements, and metric units--make the new edition of this popular reference source more handy and useful than ever."
