Dictionaries and reference grammars
Posted: Fri Sep 23, 2005 10:30 am
I'm going to have to be doing more work in French and German next year, and I'm thinking of updating my tools. I still cling onto the bits and pieces that got through by school exams, but they are severly lacking when it comes to versatility and translating obscure academic texts. I really could do with a translating dictionary and a reference grammar (as opposed to a teaching grammar -- repetez!) in each language. I think the Oxford-Dudens German Dictionary probably fits the bill, but I don't know about the Oxford-Hachette, and I don't know about grammars.
