Good
Book received in prime conditionn. I was a bit disappointed that the pronouncement is not written using Phonetics, but simplified version. Not great if you are not a native speaker, as it does not help with proper pronunciation in my case. However, my son whose primary language is english likes the dictionary, especially that the alphabet is written on every page, making it easy for a beginner dictionary user to lear how it works. As the book is for my son, not me, giving it 5 stars despite I am not satisfied with the phonetics.
