Opis

This is a large, comprehensive, and up-to-date dictionary providing Serbo-Croatian equivalents of the English lexicon, including nearly 60,000 English headwords and 100,000 phrases, idioms and collocations. It is the only bilingual dictionary giving phonetic transcription of both the American and British pronunciations for all headwords and consistently covers American English as well as British English, drawing attention to differences wherever they occur. It also provides thorough treatment of English grammar and idiomatic usages."

Recenzje

"The Benson dictionaries....have long been recognized as outstanding achievements in the field of bilingual Slavic lexicography....they accomplished the nearly impossible task of codifying two languages, each of which has significant variants." William W. Derbyshire, Slavic and East European Journal
