Publisher's Synopsis

Compact, easy to use and including a wide range of encyclopaedic information, this dictionary is intended for student, home and office use. Its authority rests on the extensive research into Australian English undertaken at the Australian National Dictionary Centre, as well as on the latest developments in international English as documented in the Oxford English Dictionary. There are many distinctly Australian words, including terms for flora and fauna, colloquialisms, borrowings from Aboriginal languages, and words used in Aboriginal English.
