Dear Colleagues,

I'd like to ask your help in locating bilingual dictionaries (print or digital) 
designed to assist learners of English in your country. I am particularly 
interested in 
learning about dictionaries that can reasonably support learners in writing by 
providing sense discrimination in the learners' native language of the learner 
(L1), 
access to English multi-word expressions from L1 entries, guidance on English 
collocation, and ideally examples in English or parallell/translated examples 
in the L1-
English section.

Here's an example entry from one such dictionary for Polish learners of English:
http://wa.amu.edu.pl/~rlew/dl/LSW_ladunek.png
- but, of course, it doesn't have to be exactly like this.

What I DON'T mean here is semibilingual adaptations in which you have to use 
the 
English->L1 section and there isn't a complete L1->English section but rather a 
simple 
index. 

If you know of such a bilingual learners' dictionary for speakers of your (or 
another) 
language, please email me back (rather than the List) with details sufficient 
for 
identification (title, link to publisher's or bookseller's page, a sample if 
you have 
it, etc.).
I will share the findings with anyone interested.

Your help is greatly appreciated!


Robert
