  • Which spanish/english dictionary is better?

    Is Larousse Concise Dicitonary better or the Webster's Spanish to English one? I got the Larousse one and am loving it, but I'm not sure if i made the right choice, although, amazon.com users mostly liked larousse.|||it the larousse and i think that your pic is really hot and i think you are hot yourself|||Definitely the Larousse|||I also use the Larousse (not concise) and one from the University of Chicago, but if you are doing proffesional translation I would say go with a couple of them, just to be sure yo find all of the words you need.


    The Websters has not worked for me.


    hope this helps.|||I really cannot answer what you are asking because I have not used ever these dictionaries.But I'm able say you that dictionary brands have been adviced to me like student of English in the Official School of Languages in Spain . They are the dictionaries of Oxford, Cambridge and Collins. You know, I reckon it can be useful for you in a future. Maybe you will need buy another dictionary. I use the English-Spanish dictionaries and it's very good.

    I speak spanish... if you want to ask something you can contact me... bye...|||THE BEST DICTIONARY AVAILABLE IS ONLINE DICTIONARY.





    SIMPLY LOGON TO WWW.FREEDICT.COM/ONLDICT/SPA.HTML


    AND LEARN SPANISH.|||There are several good dictionaries I can recommend. One is published by the University of Chicago and is soft-covered. Cassells has a Spanish-English dictionary, although they're known for their French texts. Oxford publishes a great Spanish English dictionary in hard cover. I believe Cambridge publishing also has one, although I'm not familiar with it.





    I would advise that you go to a store such as Border, Books-a -Million, or Barnes and Nobles and look at their language dictionaries in the reference section. One key for a quality dictionary is that it has examples of definitions and more than one translation or definition for many of the words. Take out several dictionaries, look up specific words, and compare them. Which book is more explicit, has clearer definitions, shows examples, and also gives you definitions that show how the word is used in context?





    For Spanish-English words, look in the Spanish section for words such as "hacer", "estar", and "tener". These three verbs should be included not only with their individual meanings, but in expressions and idioms. Any decent dictionary should give you many different ways these verbs can be used in context.





    If the dictionary you are looking at gives brief, one or two word definitions, few examples, no antonyms or synonyms, no parts of speech, it is not the right one for you. It may pay to spend a little extra to get something substantial, especially if you are just beginning to learn Spanish. Be very careful about inexpensive pocketbook dictionaries or inserts for your looseleaf binder. Most are not worth the paper they are printed on.

  • What does the Spanish word miha mean?

    I believe that is the right spelling.


    It was said in the movie Selena (with Jennifer Lopez) and in Princess Protection Program (with Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato). Both times it was said by a mother to a daughter. I'm sure it's in many others but that's just two I could think of right off.


    I've went to many Spanish translation sites but it doesn't recognize it for some reason and I can't find it in a Spanish-English dictionary.


    Could anyone tell me what it means?|||Its a contraction for "mi hija" that means my daughter. But have another meaning that is widely used. On informal conversations you refers to any woman as "mija" as a substitute of the name of the person. Instead of say the name or Lady or madam you say "Mija......."|||mija is the right spelling it usualy is said by mothers to the daughters just to say hey Daughter lol so they say mija but daughter actually means hija so mija is like a different way to say it and you can say it to nieces, daughters and people like that same thing goes for boys except it would be mijo instead of mija|||It is spelled mija it is said by mothers to their daughters or on occasions by father to their daughters which is my daughter it is something like mi hija put together


    mi hija


    my daughter


    mija


    Also it is used by men towards their women partners or between lovers as to say my babe my girl|||its spelled "mija" and is a short version of "mi hija" used for


    a term of endearment like saying :" sweetie, honey, etc"|||Mija = Mi (My) daughter (hija)





    It is a very informal way to say My daughter and it is just used by some hispanic countries.|||It is a contraction of "mi" and "hija". Mi=my. Hija=daughter. It is like if english speaking people would say "mdoter"|||It is m'ija, which is short version of mi hija, which means - my daughter, or daughter. It's like saying kiddo in english.|||GO TO:

    Are larousse spanish dictionaries good for learning castilian (spain's) spanish?

    i'm going to spain in a few weeks and i need a good dictionary that is more based on castilian spanish rather than latin american spanish. i was wondering if the larousse mini dictionary is geared more towards castilian or latin american.|||A good dictionary, and I think Larousse is a very good dictionary, has definitions for the most used words in the standard language (the standard language in Spain and Latin America is almost the same). Also, a good dictionary presents words indicating the different meanings of a word, and the best ones also indicate where those meanings are more prevalent (if a word has two different meanings, one in LatAm and one in Spain, the dictionary would show both meanings).


    Slang words are not usually present in dictionaries.|||The Spanish spoken in Latin America is Castilian. There's no such thing as Castilian Spanish. Castilian or Castellano and what we can "espa帽ol" is the same language, they're two words that refer to the same thing. There are other totally different languages spoken in Spain, like Catalan, Galician, Basque, etc.





    Anyway, Latin American and European Spanish, uses the same grammar and spelling. It's just the accent and word usages that you'll find different. Actually, any good dictionary should work. That being said, you will notice that they use the "vosotros," instead of the "usted," that Latin Americans use. Other minor differences like that will be encountered by you. Otherwise, I would just by a good resource book that deals specifically with Spain, like a travel guidebook. That should help you with gaining familiarity with the culture and providing you with things to do and things to say as well.|||yes i know what Castilian is, there's no other Spanish it's the same in Latin America and Spain lol if you find the word in spanish that's my last name xD ok you didn't need to know that :)


    All spanish dictionaries are supposed to contain EVERY word in Spanish that is not slang so assuming that you have the dictionary you should be okay with all the words. mini dictionaries are always a problem though


    as a native speaker i found myself using a mini english dictionary when i didn't speak english and now that i am fluent i am free to say that "i know more words than the ones on the mini dictionary i used"


    if you want something just to hep you out then they should do but if you want to learn spanish i would use other methods.|||any spanish dictionary will do


    some words my differ but honesly spaniards understand all other latin americans who speak spanish and vice cersa


    but if u want the best spanish dictionary,get the Real Academia de la Lengua Espa帽ola dictionary (kinda like the Oxford English Dcitionary, but in Spanish)

    Aye Carumba! More words not in my Oxford Concise Spanish dictionary! {?In context?} (56)?

    Al baile concurrió su majestad Margarita I, vestida de odalisca soñadora y al poco tiempo de instalarse en el salón apareció una corte nueva, la de Juanita 1 Emperatriz de la manteca, seguida por su loco paje el "Chato" Cetina y sus damas de "honra", Roberta, Alonsa, Adelfa y Manuela, las cuales se instalaron en unas mesas, donde fue coronada la reina por el gobernador Ruz, haciendo gala de un humor muy "colorado".





    To the dance his Majesty brought Margartia I, dressed {“soñadora odalisca”} and soon after settling in the hall she appeared in a {new cut}?, Juanita I, the Butter Empress, was followed by her crazy pageboy the “Chato (Wineglass)” Cetina, and her ladies of “honor”, Roberta, Alonsa, Adelfa, and Manuela, who settled in tables, where the queen was crowned by Governor Ruz, who did very “off-color” Gallic humor.|||His Majesty and Margarita I, attended the dance. She was dressed as a dreamer belly dancer and soon after settling in the hall the new court appeared ,Juanita I, the Butter Empress, followed by her crazy pageboy the “Chato" (Short) Cetina, and her ladies of “honor”, Roberta, Alonsa, Adelfa, and Manuela, who settled in tables, where the queen was crowned by Governor Ruz, who displayed a very “off-color” humor.





    odalisca is a belly dancer


    corte is the Court


    hacer gala is to display


    Chato is a short person|||there is a mistake in the translation you chose, actually several but this is the most obvious...His Majesty and Margarita I...this sounds like there are two people....actually it says su majestad Margarita I...her majesty margarita I...too bad you chose this answer...

    Report Abuse


    |||Okay. What is the question?-¿Tienes Pregunta?|||"olalisca" is an Arab woman who dances, full of jewelry and wearing an exotic outfit.


    "soñadora" means a woman who is day dreaming.


    "corte" means "court" not "cut".


    "Chato" you can leave the same, it means that he has a short nose.


    "Concurrió su majestad Margarita I" means that her (not his) majesty Margarita I attended (the verb was put at the beginning).


    "hacer gala" is to show. It has nothing to do with Gallic.


    "un humor muy colorado" is a very red kind of humor, meaning vulgar.





    I hope this helps.





    Edit:


    Nowhere does it say that His Majesty brought Her Majesty to the ball (dance). It says that she attended (concurrió) the ball.|||Her Majesty Margarita I attended the dance dressed as a dreamy belly dancer. Soon after finding a place in the hall, a new court, that of Juanita I, the Butter Empress, appeared, followed by her crazy pageboy, Chato Cetina, and her ladies of “honor”, Roberta, Alonsa, Adelfa, and Manuela. They sat down at the tables, where the queen was crowned by Governor Ruz, making a great show of a rather embarrasing sort of humor.|||As a fellow 'gringa' I think you did pretty well! It's a pretty weird and difficult passage.





    Just be careful with "en mesas" which would translate as "AT tables" not in or on.





    !Muy bien!





    PS Who in heck is the 'Butter Empress'???

    I suggest McGraw-Hill's Spanish and English Legal Dictionary : Diccionario Juridico Ingles-Espanol (Hardcover).





    This $30 dictionary is only $19.77 at Amazon.

It includes more than 13,000 entries in Spanish and in English. One feature that distinguishes this fully bilingual dictionary from the competition is its extensive collection of encyclopedic entries, including citations of judgments, torts and contracts, swell as civil, penal and commercial codes from the United States, Spain, and Spanish-speaking nations worldwide. It also features dozens of side-by-side sample claims, invoices, another legal documents."
