Best pocket dictionary there is!
If you need a pocket dictionary, and I mean pocket dictionary, this is the one to buy. I tested many by looking for an uncommon word, which unfortunately I can't remember now, and no other pocket dictionary had it. (Even some of the "big/non-pocket dictionaries" didn't have it.) It has many of the usual perks, like the ordinal numbers, regular numbers, etc., but also a large array of conjugated verbs thay comes in handy. Many so-called "pocket dictionaries" are really to big. This one is a little larger than some of the vey small pocket dictionaries, but worth its slightly larger size because of its large selection of words. You'll be able to find practically any word you'll ever need. I often use it in place of my huge bookshelf Spanish/English Oxford dictionary. (I recommend the Oxford dictionary for a bookcase version too. It has a huge selection of words and while one reviewer didn't like the fact that the words are blue with the defintions black, I think it makes it easier to find the wotds and so did my 4 companions.) If you're into Spanish in a big way, Barons Spanish verbs, which has 300 fully conjugated verbs is the perfect companion this pocket dictionary.
Wonderful Dictionary, Great Verb Conjugation Tables
The verb conjugation tables here are worth their weight in gold. They give you all the basic patterns and the basic classes of irregular verbs, with the irregular forms shown in bold, a great learning tool. Then all verbs in the dictionary are referenced to a specific pattern. A much better approach then the dumb listing of all forms of a limited number of verbs, as in the over-rated "501 Spanish Verbs". This dict, unlike some pockets, gives important idioms and phrases for most words. Worth every penny, both as a dictionary and a companion to other more structure "learn spanish" books.
Not just verbs conjugations tables
The verbs conjugations are listed in the dictionary like any other word. I don't know if all are listed but an effort was made to put them in regular dictionary for us people that are to dumb to know that they are verbs at first glance. This is the only dictionary, I have seen, of its size to do this.
