The difference between Oxford Intermediate and Longman Advanced

The difference between Oxford Intermediate and Longman Advanced is that Oxford Intermediate has a shallow degree of explanation of words, generally only listing the most commonly used 2 3 Chinese meanings, "Longman Advanced" has a relatively deep explanation of words, has a detailed explanation of spoken and written language and adds grammar explanations, and example sentences are also more difficult.

If you are a junior high school or high school student, using "Oxford Intermediate" is enough. If you are a university student and want to make great progress in English, it is recommended to use "Oxford Advanced", "Longman Advanced", "Longman Advanced".

Knowledge points need to know.

The 96-page appendix at the end of the dictionary also provides English language learners with a quick look at English grammar, phonetics, writing, letters, literary criticism terminology, and even the abbreviated forms commonly used in e-mail and text messages.

Appendix"Oxford 3000 Glossary"It is even more rare for Chinese English learners, especially beginners"Road signs", because it clearly tells Chinese students that they should start with ** in English vocabulary learning.

The essential difference between these two dictionaries is that the Oxford Intermediate level has a shallow degree of explanation of words, generally only listing the most commonly used 2 3 Chinese meanings, and "Longman Advanced" has a relatively deep explanation of words, with detailed explanations of spoken and written language and added grammar explanations, and example sentences are more difficult.

In terms of use: if you are a junior high school and high school student, it is enough to use "Oxford Intermediate", if you are a college student and want to make great progress in English, I recommend using "Oxford Advanced", "Longman Advanced", "Longman Advanced".

Among them, the explanations in "Longman Advanced" are mainly divided into British English and American English, while "Longman Advanced" is mainly used in American English.

It depends on which dictionary you need.

Oxford Intermediate: Secondary school students.

Longman Advanced: College students (learning American language).

Longman Contemporary: College Students.

Longman Contemporary ≠ Longman Advanced.

A lot of people around me say that Oxford is good, and my teacher recommends it, mainly because of its wide vocabulary.

Oxford Intermediate English-Chinese Dictionary

It was the Commercial Press on July 1, 2010.

Books published by Oxford University Press, by Wemmer Turnbull and Waters.

This dictionary has been compiled by experienced English educators, and the materials are practical and the translations are fluent. There are more than 30,000 selected words and phrases, and more than 30,000 examples are taken from the "Oxford English Dictionary", which explains the latest usage of various words and phrases. There are more than 3,000 idioms and phrasal verbs.

There are mutual items; There are as many as 1,500 annotations, distinguishing difficult words and related words, changing and paraphrasing terms are limited to 3,500 common English words, which are easy to understand, and the color "classification page" has a total of 52 pages, with a wide range of content, involving computers, environment and ecology.

Methods of recording new words, place name lists, etc., and several topics take into account the situation of China and foreign countries, such as education systems, ** institutions, etc.

It is also equipped with 7 refined maps of various regions of the world, in addition, it has both English and American pronunciation and spelling, which is easy to consult. The above features make this old dictionary the most effective desk companion for intermediate English learners who speak Chinese as their first language.

The difference between Oxford Intermediate and Advanced Level: "Oxford Intermediate English-Chinese Dictionary" contains about 40,000 words, the difficulty of English explanation is moderate, and the structure of usage example sentences is relatively complex, which is suitable for junior high school students, while the "Oxford Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary" contains about 80,000 words, English interpretation has a certain degree of difficulty, and it has a great effect on the rules and grammar of learning English, which is suitable for high school and college non-English major students, and can also be used by English major students in colleges and universities. Difference Between Oxford Intermediate and Upper Level:

The Oxford Intermediate English-Chinese Dictionary contains about 40,000 words, with moderate difficulty in English explanation, and the structure of the example sentences is relatively complex, which is suitable for junior high school students, while the Oxford Advanced English-Chinese Dictionary contains about 80,000 words, and the English interpretation has a certain degree of difficulty, which has a great effect on the rules and grammar of learning English, and is suitable for high school and college non-English majors, and can also be used by English majors in colleges and universities.

I recommend Longman's Advanced Contemporary English Dictionary. The reason is.

First of all, Longman's typesetting, Longman arranges the color pages behind the dictionary, which feels very neat and easy to use. The color page of the Oxford Trousers Dictionary (Sixth Edition) is added in the middle, giving people a messy feeling, and it feels inconvenient to use.

The second is the explanation of entries and the analysis of entries, to give a simple example of the analysis of entries between affect and effect: Longman's entries are much more detailed, and the explanations are very clear, so that the usage of these two words is very clear. And in Oxford, the explanation is very simple, and it is not very clear, if you don't believe it, you can go to the bookstore to check it out for yourself, and compare it.

The third is that Longman has marked 3,000 commonly used colloquial pen words. And the English-English explanation of words uses 2000 basic words. Oxford English explains that words are of the same difficulty as the entry.

This is very important, sometimes understanding English explanations is more conducive to understanding words than Chinese explanations.

These are the reasons why I recommend Longman Contemporary.
