Collins Gem - Scots dictionary
Scots Something or someone which is Scots comes from Scotland. In current Scots use, both Scots or Scottish are regarded as acceptable usage. Scots is the language spoken, in a variety of forms, by the majority of people who live in Scotland. It is descended from the Germanic dialect spoken by the Anglo-Saxon people who settled in Southeast Scotland in the 7th century. More information about the history and dialects of Scots can be found in the Introduction to this dictionary. See also Doric and Lallans.

With over 17, 000 entries, this is the most authoritative and comprehensive guide to word origins available in paperback. Based on The Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology, the principal authority on the origin and development of English words, it contains a wealth of information about our language and its history. For example, readers will learn that bungalow originally meant "belonging to Bengal, " that assassin comes from the Arabic for "Hashish-eater, " and that nice meant "foolish or stupid" in the thirteenth century, "coy or shy" in the fifteenth. And adder, anger, and umpire were originally spelled with an initial "n." These are but a few of the fascinating tidbits found in this dictionary, which is a must for anyone interested in the richness of the English language.

Cambridge International Dictionary of Phrasal Verbs
Phrasal verbs are an important feature of the English language. Their importance lies in the fact that they form such a key part of everyday English. Not only are they used in spoken and informal English, but they are also a common aspect of written and even formal English. Understanding and learning to use phrasal verbs, however, is often problematic and there are many reasons for this. The meaning of a phrasal verb, for example, often bears no relation to the meaning of either the verb or the particle which is used with it. This means that phrasal verbs can be difficult both to understand and to remember. Neither does it help that many phrasal verbs have several different meanings, nor that their syntactic behaviour is often unpredictable.

-OVER 4500 PHRASAL VERBS current in British, American and Australian English

- THOUSANDS OF EXAMPLE SENTENCES: showing phrasal verbs in context

- A CAREFULLY CONTROLLED DEFININGS VOCABULARY making explanations easy to understand

-CLEAR AND DETAILED INFORMATION on grammar and collocation

Collins First Picture Dictionary
Illustrated by award winning artist Nick Sharratt, this fabulous dictionary is designed to teach young children simple word and picture association, and to help them develop their language skills - an essential stage in learning to read.

My First Picture Dictionary contains a selection of common everyday words, grouped in familiar themes such as In the Park, At the Seaside, and Things We Like to Eat. Each word is accompanied by a bold, colourful illustration, and many spreads also feature an action-packed scene incorporating the words.

A special feature of the dictionary are the questions posed by the cat, the dog and the family of children who appear throughout the book. These questions help parents and teachers to share the book with their children, encouraging them to look closely at the words and pictures, and talk about what they see.

The dictionary opens with an introduction for adults, explaining how to get the most out of the book, and ends with a range of fun spreads that explore simple concepts such as colour, numbers and "doing" words.

Dictionary of Idioms
Идиоматический словарь.

Издание полностью на английском языке.

Explains where phrases such as "take the rap", "off the cuff", and "flavour of the month" come from and what exactly they mean. This work contains entries for over 5000 idioms, including over 350 new entries, to elucidate and entertain.

Did you know that "flavour of the month" originated in a marketing campaign in American ice-cream parlours in the 1940s, when a particular flavour would be specially promoted for a month at a time? And did you know that "off the cuff" refers to the rather messy practice of writing impromptu notes on one"s shirt cuff before speaking in public? These and many more idioms are explained and put into context in this second edition of the "Oxford Dictionary of Idioms". This vastly entertaining dictionary takes a fresh look at the idiomatic phrases and sayings that make English such a rich and intriguing language. A major new edition, it contains entries for over 5000 idioms, including 350 new entries and over 500 new quotations. The text has been updated to include many new idioms using the findings of the Oxford English Reading Programme, the biggest language research programme in the world. The entries are supported by a wealth of illustrative quotations from a wide range of sources and periods. For example: "Rowling has not been asleep at the wheel in the three years since the last Potter novel, and I am pleased to report that she has not confused sheer length with inspiration." - "Guardian", 2003. "I made the speech of a lifetime. I had them tearing up the seats and rolling in the aisles." - P.G. Woodhouse, 1940. Many entries include boxed features which give more detailed background on the idiom in question. For example, did you know that "taken aback" was adopted from nautical terminology, and described a ship unable to move forward because of a strong headwind pressing its sails back against the mast? The text has been entirely redesigned so that it is both elegant and easy to use. Anyone interested in the quirky side of the English language will have hours of fun browsing through this fascinating and informative volume.

Dictionary of English Idioms
The Oxford Dictionary of English Idioms offers a fresh look at the idiomatic phrases and sayings that make English the rich language that it is. The third edition contains entries for over 6, 000 idioms, including 700 entirely new entries, based on Oxford's language monitoring programs and the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary. These include a range of idioms such as "the elephant in the corner, " "go figure, " "step up to the plate, " "a walk in the park, " and "win ugly." Many entries include more detailed background on the idiom in question. For example, did you know that 'taken aback' was adopted from nautical terminology that described a ship unable to move forward because of a strong headwind pressing its sails back against the mast?

The book lists national variants, so we learn that while in America they say "all over the map, " in Britain they say "all over the shop." This edition also features a greatly increased number of cross-references, making it ideal for quick reference. Anyone interested in the colorful side of the English language will have hours of fun browsing this fascinating and informative volume.
