N2  - "This up-to-date reference for American English is an indispensable learning tool that will build and strengthen the developing vocabularies - and vocabulary-building skills - of learners at all levels. It is presented in a clear, uncomplicated format with a minimum of codes, abbreviations, and special symbols. Using this dictionary will improve your speaking, writing, and understanding of English: at least two example sentences are given with each definition, so you can see words used properly and effectively in real-life situations; to ensure comprehension, virtually every word used in the definitions is defined within the dictionary; common American idioms are defined and given sample sentences, so you will learn these important English expressions; the Idioms and Phrases Index makes these expressions easy to find in the body of the dictionary."--Jacket
