Oxford-Hachette French Dictionary: French-English English-French

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Oxford-Hachette French-English/English-French Dictionary is one of the most comprehensive and recent bilingual French-English/English-French dictionaries. It was the first such dictionary to be written using a computerized corpus and it contains 555,000 translations as well as 360,000 words and expressions. The work was first published in 1994, with its second and third editions appearing in 1997 and 2001, respectively. Though the dictionary is entirely bilingual, it is marketed under two different names, one for French, one for English:

• Le grand dictionnaire Hachette-Oxford français-anglais et anglais-français
• Oxford-Hachette French Dictionary: French-English English-French

The French version is also available in a condensed version. It is jointly published by Oxford University Press and Hachette Education.
