For almost 25 years, Webster's New World International Spanish Dictionary has been known and respected throughout the world as the most complete and up-to-date bilingual dictionary of the Spanish and English languages. Now revised and updated for the first time, this new edition continues that tradition, providing a comprehensive lexicon of two languages as they are encountered and used today.

The most exact equivalents and definitions given in a bilingual dictionary. The latest technical and scientific terminology. The richest, most extensive treatment of idioms, colloquialisms, and slang. Comprehensive treatment of Latin-American, Iberian, North American, and British variants and regionalisms.
