Macmillan English Study Dictionary

Brian Heaton

ELEMENTARY

This elementary dictionary is designed for junior learners of English.

It defines 2,500 English words through clearly laid out, simple explanations which only use words which appear in the dictionary. If a word has more than one meaning these are numbered.

Each word is shown with helpful examples of how it can be used in a sentence and in many cases is supported by fun illustrations and cartoons. Collocations of words show common ways in which the headword is used which will help students choose the correct context in which to use new words.

A simple Guide to Pronunciation and a section of Grammar Notes are included in the front of the dictionary as a useful reference guide for students to words and symbols they will come across whilst using the dictionary.

Macmillan Student’s Dictionary

M. Manser

INTERMEDIATE

This dictionary is written for students with a basic knowledge of the English language but who have not yet reached an advanced level of ability.

It is primarily aimed at students learning English as a Second Language to help them with English used in a variety of mainstream subjects.

Greater attention is therefore given to ‘study language’ – words and phrases which are common to many subjects – than is usual in dictionaries of a similar size.

This completely revised edition includes:

  • Up-to-date and international coverage of 2,000 new entries
  • Clear, attractive layout with beautifully accurate line drawings of many words (120 new illustrations in this edition)
  • Restricted defining vocabulary, so students looking up a word will not find five more they do not know
  • Example sentences to help explain usage where this presents a problem
  • A useful guide to pronunciation and help with word formation
  • Cross-references to show related words

ABC of Common Grammatical Errors

Nigel D. Turton

INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED

The ABC of Common Grammatical Errors is a practical reference book which provides teachers and learners with easy access to the information they need to correct their grammatical errors.

Common errors made by learners of various language backgrounds in their system grammar (subject-verb agreement, tense use, the passive, question forms) and word grammar (e.g. usage) are combined in the ABC in single alphabetical arrangement.

Errors have been gathered from a large corpus of written texts produced by learners at intermediate and advanced levels of proficiency. These can include some surprisingly elementary errors.

The models of correct usage follow British English, with American English usage described in the relevant entries.
