French bilingual dictionary? (1 Viewer)

[MooshyMoosh]

Hey everyone, I wasn't sure whether to post this in the UNSW arts section or here, but seeing as arts people almost NEVER reply, I opted for here.

Can anybody recommend a good bilingual French dictionary? What dictionary do you use for your French study?

Thanks everyone

I did French for my HSC and I used the Collins French Dictionary & Grammar. There was a section in the back on blue pages that I always found helpful for grammar.

I have one called Harrap's New Standard French and English dictionary. It comes in two volumes: Volume One is A to I and is about 600 pages long, Volume Two is J to Z and would be about the same length. They're about the size phonebooks, so obviously not good for carrying around with you, but awesome for a home reference.
Unfortunately they are old (circa 1980) and I picked them up at a library book sale for $1 each, so I don't know if you could find them yourself, but try other library book sales in your area or when the university book fairs are on, you could find similar.
