Absolutely Top Marks for this Dictionary5
Quite simply the best De-En/En-De dictionary I have ever used (and I don't work for Collins either!). Easy to read, no confusing abbreviations, well laid out (and in colour) and plenty of examples of the words in use in the language. This gets my best recommendation.

No Pronunciation Guides2
The major flaw of this dictionary is that not a single entry provides the pronunction of the German or English words. With an Easy Learning edition, I assumed the phonetics would be simplified a little, not completely omitted!

This somewhat detracts from the other excellent elements of the dictionary: entries are clear and easy to follow, the example phrases are very useful at demonstrating words in different contexts.

However, not including pronunciation guides is unforgivable!

Where are the pages?2
Everything this dictionary contains is easy to read,
However the book is missing pages 123 - 142. What's up with that?
