Oxford Essential Spanish Dictionary: Spanish-English - English-Spanish

Product Information

Linguistics —the academic study of language as such— offers you the opportunity to branch out from the two areas of study that undergraduates encounter during the first-year course: literature and the practical study of the language. The study of Linguistics teaches you to be conscious of how languages in general, and Spanish in particular, construct a complex system from simple principles. You might not have considered a frequency dictionary before, but this English-Spanish dictionary could be a good addition to your library of resources, whether you’re a translator or a language student. There is one further paper (Paper XII), which offers the chance to study a wide range of linguistic, literary, or cultural topics (including cinema), some specifically Spanish, some related to other languages, and yet others that are not language-specific.

The First-Year (Preliminary) Syllabus Full-colour supplement includes sections on relationships and feelings, in town, at home, jobs and hobbies.The Sub-Faculty of Spanish also offers you the opportunity to study languages spoken in Spain other than Castilian. Reflecting modern developments in that country, we provide classes in Galician and Catalan taught by trained native speakers of those languages. In your Final exams you can opt to take papers in Catalan or Galician language and/or literature. Students also often take the opportunity to study one or both of these languages just for fun.
