The Langenscheidt Gro\u00dfw\u00f6rterbuch Deutsch als Fremdsprache: Das einsprachige W\u00f6rterbuch f\u00fcr alle, die Deutsch lernen<\/i> (Langenscheidt's Large Dictionary of German as a Foreign Language: The Monolingual Dictionary for Everyone Who is Learning German<\/i>) is, like its subtitle states, a monolingual dictionary with simplified language meant for someone learning German as a foreign language. German is the only language used within, so it is best used by someone who has already had a semester or two of the language. It features approximately 66,000 entries, 63,000 example sentences and phrases, and numerous notes with regards to grammatical usage, idioms, synonyms, antonyms, regional variants, and compound building. There are also a few illustrations scattered throughout. There are 11 pages at the beginning of the text explaining how to use the dictionary, and a few small appendices in the back, with geographical names and adjectives, numbers, irregular verbs, and an index to the special info boxes sprinkled throughout the text. These info boxes contain grammatical info (ex. \"The Past Tense\") and cultural topics (\"Johann Sebastian Bach\", \"The Vienna Coffeehouse,\" etc). This is a fully revised edition; the original appeared in 1993. My copy is fairly beat-up; I used it quite a bit in the mid-2000s.<\/p>\n

I attempt to look up \"umbrella\" and \"Saint Louis\" in all of the reference works featured on this site in order to allow easy comparison between them. In general, beyond the major places listed in the appendix for geographical names, cities are not included in this text, so there is no entry on \"Saint Louis.\" In German, there is a general term for umbrella (\"Schirm\") and then specific words for those that protect against rain (\"Regenschirm\") and those that protect against the sun (\"Sonnenschirm\"); I've looked all three of these terms up. \"Schirm\" is found on page 885:<\/p>\n
