  This pocket-sized, illustrated dictionary contains the most essential words a young traveller might need to use in France - words for getting around, booking campsites and hotels, ordering food and drinks, sightseeing, playing sport, or making friends and swapping information. Included are the most current French expressions and slang in every-day use. Over 3000 words are listed alphabetically in English and French. More than 30 subjects are illustrated in colour, and additional vocabulary is given in the form of labels. There are pronunciation tips with every French translation, and a practical section on sentence structure and verbs should help newcomers to French string individual words together. This dictionary can be used on its own, or with the phrasebook in the same series.
