Welcome to our

Longman Dictionary Catalogue for 2010/11! We are proud to bring you our wide range of dictionaries that cater for all ages and learning levels, and across a range of needs and skills. Longman has led the way in English dictionaries since 1755. Based on long-term research, the current dictionary team finds out what teachers and students around the world need from a learner’s dictionary. The aim is to provide you with the best learner’s dictionaries so that you can get your students communicating confidently in English. The ways in which Longman dictionaries can help you to teach your students to become independent learners include: • The clearest definitions – the world-famous Longman Defining Vocabulary uses 2 000 common words for all the definitions in the dictionaries • Pronunciation – the dictionaries provide phonetic pronunciations and all the Longman CD-ROMs allow students to listen to the words • CD-ROMs – all our major dictionaries now come with CD-ROMs, which provide a wealth of extra material allowing learners additional time to spend on their grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation and exam practice. To find out which dictionary is right for you and your learners, please take a look at Your Guide to Choosing a Dictionary on pages 2 and 3 of this catalogue. The latest additions to our dictionary range include our new bilingual dictionaries for the Foundation Phase for Afrikaans, isiXhosa, isiZulu, Sepedi and Setswana p. 24, as well as the Ladybird Afrikaans and English dictionaries p. 25. For 40 years the HAT (Die Handwoordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal) has been the most popular dictionary in the Afrikaans language. Drawing on the HAT expertise, the family has been extended to now include My eerste HAT (p. 26), and HAT sak- and skoolwoordeboek (p. 27–28).
