Spanisch-deutsches Wörterbuch der Redewendungen

A phrase, or idiom, is a more or less fixed combination of words whose meaning as a whole cannot necessarily be derived from the meanings of its components.

The two volumes contain over 23,000 Spanish phrases (including variants), 11,600 entries, 13,700 meanings, 3,800 keywords, and 18,800 examples, all translated into German. To enhance understanding, all phraseological units are accompanied by examples from authentic contexts. The most comprehensive and up-to-date source of living Spanish language for the translated examples was the internet. Didactic and user-friendly guidelines, along with strict scientific criteria as methodological cornerstones, enable a wide audience to access this unique dictionary. Thus, it is undoubtedly an indispensable reference work for both deepening Spanish language skills and for translation.
