Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary with CD-ROM

In the few short years since the last edition of the Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary was published, there has been a revolution in the way people communicate. The expansion of the internet, social media, electronic communication, and the integration of telecoms devices with the internet have all had an enormous impact on the way in which learners encounter English, as well as on the way dictionaries are used and what they are used for. The fully updated edition of the best-selling Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary contains clear definitions, examples and new sections: ‘Focus on writing’ section helps learners to develop their advanced writing skills. ‘Common mistake’ boxes, informed by the Cambridge English Corpus, help learners to avoid typical mistakes and, finally, ‘Word partner’ boxes show learners how to use words as a native speaker would.
