As a business translator I have been using this dictionary and Wiley's
English-Spanish, Spanish-English Business Dictionary for several years now, and
together they would get the job done for me. As each year went by however, there
would be more and more terms that I could not find in either dictionary.
Happily, a few months ago Webster's New World English-Spanish/Spanish-English
Business Dictionary was published, and now I have access to over 80,000 entries
and over 100,000 translations! Its 2006 publication date insures that it is
completely current.
Now I only use Webster's New World English-Spanish/Spanish-English Business
Dictionary. And I use it every day. All the time. So, my recommendation is to
buy Webster's New World English-Spanish/Spanish-English Business Dictionary, and
perhaps in a few years, also buy the new edition of The Oxford Spanish Business
Dictionary whenever it is published.

This dictionary is complete with contemporary business terms in Spanish with
their English equivalent. This dictionary is a handy reference for those who
need to know and understand business terms in Spanish as well as keep pace with
neologisms that come into the language especially from the technology sector.
The vocabulary is very contemporary and includes abbreviations as well that are
included in business documents and letters. The middle of dictionary includes a
business correspondence section with sample business letters, resumes, email
vocabulary and other handy business correspondence references. This dictionary
would be most beneficial to those who use Spanish in a professional capacity,
advanced learners of Spanish and those who simply want to speak correctly using
proper business terms at all times in Spanish. This is a worthwhile investment.
