Plain English
I teach Geography at a South London secondary school; many of my students are from overseas and so have little or no knowledge of the English language. I have therefore accumulated, over the years, a wide range of bi-lingual dictionaries for such students to use within my classroom, and this dictionary has been a welcome addition. The students find it easy to access the information, the pages are clearly set out, the type of words are those one would encounter on a daily basis (obviously, I would love to have more geographical terms and keywords, but that would be an unrealistic expectation!), the images serve to appropriately support the text and the format of the pages is not too confusing or fussy. The students can work on a basic theme that I set them, with some input from me throughout the lesson and, as a result, expand their English language as well as feel an integral member of the working classroom environment. I am sure that it would also be a very handy reference book for anyone in the early/middle stages of learning Portuguese.

Look at the pictures, and see the word in both languages
This is a glossy book in the best sense of the word; it creates an attractive environment conducive to learning. I’ve been attempting to teach English to a Portuguese nurse, and vocabulary has proved a big problem. Has this book solved the problem? Hmmmm it has been a big help, specifically with regard to concrete vocabulary.

Excellent, almost exhaustive resource.
Excellent, almost exhaustive resource but inexpensive. Handy size for carrying around. As with all DK books, excellent paper and binding - should last a long time. The pages are well set out with relevant and up-to-date illustrations. Once bought, you can very easily download free app and associated audio very which lists vocabulary in either language A-Z, just toggle. very easily. How to do it is clearly given on pages 8 or 9. I bought 2 copies as I am teaching a Brazilian friend to speak English from scratch. I do not know Portuguese but this is an excellent resource. This book, the associated app, the Google Translate app and a smart phone are all that is needed for us to communicate and learn each other's language easily and quickly.

The Near Perfect Dictionary of Nouns
Every noun we need as we're beginning learning. The pictures help a lot. Not great for Grammar, and may mix up some Brazilian and European words. And still better than anything else we didn't have to create ourselves.

These books are fantastic and we bought the English/portuguese for our selves years ago when we bought a house in Portugal. This example we gave to one of the shop owners and she use it all the time. She has shown it to all the customers and is so proud to have it. Actual pictures doees is easy to find and understand the words.

Brilliant
I found this book absolutely brilliant. We have been living in Portugal for six months now and this book has come in very handy. We have lessons weekly but obviously the language is pretty difficult, but this book has helped us considerably. I would certainly recommend it to anyone, even if you are only visiting.

Useful! Great buy!
The book is bigger than I thought (about the size of my hand) But I love the visuals. I’m taking a Portuguese course so this is a good resource for supplementary material. I love that I can download everything on the app and hear the pronunciation which is missing in other dictionaries. If you’re a visual learner this is the dictionary for you. Instead of just reading a dictionary which I already have this makes it better to learn. If you want a dictionary pocket size, visuals not needed or pronunciation support then it’s not for you. I’m very happy with this for my learning.

Complet avec l'application android DK Visual Dictionary
Dictionnaire bilingue visuel "portuguese english" vraiment pratique, avec accès à l'audio, permettant l'écoute et une meilleure prononciation de l'apprenant. L'immersion en anglais pour apprendre le portugais (langue latine comme le français) est positive.
