Reviewed in the United States on September 24, 2013
I really like this book, it's concise and is organized in an effective, easy to find matter. The pages are glossy and of high quality. It can be a little too specific for beginners, such as different internal organs that most likely wouldn't come up in a conversation (aka the spleen) but you never know. So this book would be good for more advanced speakers in addition to newbies like myself. It's small enough to carry around although looking things up on a smartphone might be easier. I like to use it while studying as I associate the picture with the word a lot better than using a smartphone or dictionary. Plus when you are looking at a picture of food in this book, you can see a lot of other items associated with the food you might not have thought you wanted to know. For example, you want to see what they define hamburger as, it will show a picture along with all the condominents. Anyway, for the price, this was a good investment for myself.

I took Spanish for three years in high school and recently decided to pick it back up. I didn't take any Spanish classes in college because I was afraid I'd be behind everyone else since it had been four years since I'd taken a class. I ordered this book so that I could at least learn some vocab beforehand and lessen the load a little just in case I became overwhelmed with grammar.

This book is not for someone who has never taken a class in Spanish, but I don't think you'd need more than a month of class before this book would be realistic. At minimum, simple concepts like pronunciation and masculine/feminine terms need to be understood first. This is not a book with overall vocab; it is rather extensive for beginners and it will take a lot of time to commit all of the words to memory. Also, this is not a stand-alone book. Without actually conversing and writing in Spanish, the words won't likely "stick."

If you aren't willing to put a substantial amount of time into committing these words to memory, don't buy this book! It will sit on your shelf and collect dust after you give up. If you are willing to take the time, then a visual dictionary such as this (especially this one because of its organization and detail) is the best deal! I researched a lot of vocab books and Spanish-English dictionaries before this and I am glad I decided on this one.

I have ordered this book awhile ago and it is still serving me well. It is very useful when going out and to bring along; plus it is small enough to put inside of a handbag. This book is a great start for those whom what to learn Spanish in a quick, basic, and easy way. Although I am now fluent (with the help of this book, and other helpful resources); I still carry it with me because I might run into something I cannot remember the vocabulary to. The only down fault to this book is that of course it doe not have all of the entire English to Spanish vocabulary. But like I said, this is a good basic Spanish learning book. I am glad that I bought it.

20121219 - I am where I could use the book. I wish it was pocket size. Right now, it stays in my backpack in the hotel room where it is useless for how I had thought it would be used. The material is great so it stays as 5 stars because I can put it on a copy machine and get some of the stuff I need when walking around.

------------------------
The Spanish (see Chinese and Japanese reviews) visual dictionary works in harmony with the Chinese and Japanese dictionaries so that a word in one dictionary is available in the other dictionaries on the same page so there is a handy reference between languages, understanding, and context.

If sophistication is what is wanted, this is not that kind of dictionary. If a general-use word is needed and a picture helps for context verification confirming an expected relationship to English, then this is the dictionary for you.

The only error, and maybe not an error, I ran across. is for "rappelling." In two of the dictionaries a very uncommon word (abselling) is used for "rappelling" (see page 248 in the three dictionaries mentioned above).

I would recommend these three for anyone needing a basic way to communicate where English is not spoken. It's easy. Find the word in the index, go to the page, point at the picture. This process works even if the other person is not able to read their own language.

What can I say other than I love this dictionary! I ordered one when I was studying Portuguese and then another when I started to study Spanish. The pictures totally help in relating vocab to physical objects. I like how it goes in depth with the body parts as well, I mean really, would you ever look up how to say 'vein' or 'iris'? This book does all that for you and presents it in an easily digestible way with the aid of pictures. I study one Chapter a week and each chapter covers pretty much everything in that specific category. If you're looking for a relevant and concise dictionary without a bunch of boring white pages and unnecessary vocab, definitely buy this book!

I am a Spanish teacher and purchased this dictionary as a resource for myself and my classroom. I very much appreciate the organization and visual appeal of this book. It's fabulous to be able to learn vocabulary by theme/topic rather than alphabetically. Although it is a small book, it has loads of words, both basic and advanced, that are very helpful for expanding one's vocabulary.

I LOVE this book so much that I have bought it over and over - giving it away as gifts to so many Spanish learners and even Spanish speakers who are not so fluent that they couldn't benefit from a book that provides English, Castilian and Mexican usage for thousands of very specific pictures. Inflatable dinghy? reduced-fat milk? extension cord? after-sun care? It's all here, with DK's characteristically beautiful photos. It's a bit heavy to cart everywhere, but it's so engrossing that it makes any long wait (at the supermarket or doctor's office)an unexpected pleasure.

I love this series of dictionaries! They make learning a language so much easier - and one can skip the sections which relate to subjects one is never going to use.
