About this product

Product Information

Authoritative and up to date, this eleventh edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary contains over 240,000 words, phrases, and definitions, including 900 new words. It offers rich vocabulary coverage, with full treatment of World English, rare, historical, and archaic terms, as well as scientific and technical vocabulary, and provides hundreds of helpful notes on grammar and usage. New to this edition is a fascinating Word Histories feature, telling the often bizarre stories of the origins and development of 100s of words. For example, did you know that the word grammar is related to glamour, or that cockney used to mean a spoilt child? This dictionary contains full appendices on topics such as alphabets, currencies, electronic English, and the registers of language, from formal to slang, plus a useful Guide to Good English with advice on grammar, punctuation, and spelling. This new edition replaces ISBNs 0-19-860572-2 and 0-19-860636-2.

Exactly what I wanted.
Our Oxford Dictionary was falling to bits, and very m...uch out of date. This purchase has replaced it perfectly, in excellent condition.

Unbelievable price for the amazing immaculate Oxford English Dict...ionary. I am very impressed with the item and delivery. My old dictionary (Oxford English) is a quarter size of this one, but I'm having problem putting it in the bin, it's become an attachment! However it has to go as this used replacement is up to date, and one of the best purchases I've ever made. Thank you so much.

It's a dictionary
As described, almost mint only slightly outdated, the Engl...ish language doesn't change too much from edition to edition. As far as I can recall had phonetics included.
