8The Collins COBUILD Primary Learner's English Dictionary is an engaging
new, illustrated dictionary aimed at learners of English aged 7 and over. The
dictionary has been specially created for primary school students, whose
first language is
not English, but who attend English-language schools.
Ideal for young learners of English and primary school students who are studying through
the medium of English, the Collins COBUILD Primary Learner's Dictionary covers all the
essential words, phrases and idioms that students need to learn. The definitions are
written using simple language and the dictionary contains thousands of examples of real
English, showing the learner how English is really used.
With over 8,000 entries, the dictionary also includes a wide range of cross-curricular (CLIL)
vocabulary items, which will help students studying in English to build their academic
vocabulary, as well as gain confidence in writing and speaking English inside and outside
the classroom. With hundreds of line drawings illustrating key terms, and the full colour
illustrated supplement of essential topics, the Collins COBUILD Primary Learner's
Dictionary is the ideal reference tool for young learners of English.
