The vocabulary represents the present-day speech of educated Yugoslavs and of the daily press, and includes the complex political and economic terminology used in contemporary Yugoslavia. The new edition includes a large number of current usages as well as essential computer terms. This dictionary accounts for the differences between the Eastern and Western varieties of SerboCroatian as well as between American and British English. The leading dictionary of its kind in Yugoslavia, this dictionary is a must for every reference library."--Publisher description.
