Waite, Maurice : The Oxford Colour Dictionary

An additional appendix helps you get more out of your dictionary by testing your vocabulary-building skills with questions on spelling and meaning. Answers are provided so you can test yourself. The durable flexi binding makes the dictionary particularly hard-wearing. This book is intended for general trade, for home, school, and office.
