Description
Le Petit Robert's most helpful factor is its extensive use of example sentences in which the word being defined is used, allowing those with a weak sense of its meaning and nuance to know its proper use(s). I use it in conjunction with bilingual French/English dictionaries, partly to check whether that's how the French would really say something, and partly to refer to the example uses mentioned previously. That way I have two takes on a word: the corresponding English word, and the different meanings the word conveys in French. A truly invaluable resource for anyone wanting a trustworthy reference for the French language.
