Product Description
The newest edition brings the VELAZQUEZ dictionary into the 21st century. For almost 150 years this dictionary has been recognized throughout the world as the preeminent authority in bilingual Spanish/English dictionaries. More than 125,000 self-pronouncing entries make the VELAZQUEZ the most advanced reference book in its field. In addition to its modern scientific, technical, commercial, cultural, and political terms, it will now include new words related to the information and business industries. All entries will be revised according to modern American standard usage (for English) and Latin American standard usage (for Spanish). The English-Spanish section will include a simulated pronunciation and also include a simulated international pronunciation. The Spanish-English section will include the Spanish pronunciation as it applied to the English language. All entries will begin with small case lettering and irregular verbs will be included and their tenses will have appropriate entries in the main text of the dictionary.

 typos December 13, 2007
this dictionary is good, but has an amazing number of typographical errors. It needs a new, corrected edition
 This is an awesome dictionary!!! October 22, 2007
This IS the best Spanish/English dictionary I have ever seen. Will be perfect for our medical clinic. I highly recommend this particular dictionary if you are looking for one.

Other than not caring for the Castillian pronunciation, this is an excellent source book for my studies! It should help me master my Spanish because of having such a wellspring of words.

Nowadays I find myself look up words online more often then checking my hardcover dictionary. It is fast and costs me nothing. Buying a dictionary seems less important.
Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary have a support website called AskVelazquez.com. It is free, and I can ask questions, either for the new words that I can't find in the dictionary or grammar issues when I do the translation. I find this site very useful, and it makes my Velazquez Dictionary even more useful.
Velazquez Spanish and English Dictionary also contain words from not just Spain and Mexico, but usages from Puerto Rico, Peru or Argentina. It is a very complete reference dictionary. I only wish there is an electronic version.
I LOVE this Dictionary! June 29, 2006

I'd consider it to be the best Spanish/ English dictionary there is. It's the best because it's very comprehensive and has a wealth of knowledge in translating both languages. It has SO MANY words, which is like over 250,000 entries. What I also love about it is that it's been updated for the 21st century and also includes different types of Spanish words from different kinds of Spanish-speaking countries, not just Spain. I think it's perfect for Spanish teachers and for those students who are taking advanced Spanish courses. The color-coded thumb-indexes make it easy to flip through as well.
