With 78,000 definitions explaining the meanings of 50,000 words and phrases, Chambers Family Dictionary is designed to give all the family the answers they need, whether it is the spelling of a word for an important e-mail or a little extra help with homework. It covers not only everyday words and their meanings, but also hundreds of technical words from school subjects, and gives tips on spelling and grammar. It also features a large illustrated colour supplement on people, places and events, supplying information needed by adults and children alike. This makes it a book that can take a central place on any family reference shelf.
