OverviewIn The Oxford Spanish Dictionary, Oxford University Press is pleased to offer a major new bilingual reference for 1994. Based on an intensive research project lasting over eight years, The Oxford Spanish sets a new standard as one of the most authoritative--and useful--foreign language dictionaries available today.
