Excellent reference for writing/editing English language
This is a wonderful reference for a writer/editor. It doesn’t include definitions, only spelling and hyphenation points, so it takes only a few seconds to check and ensure a spelling is correct.

Het is gewoon een spellingswoordenboek. Er staat nauwelijks spelling over de uitleg in.Erg veel spijt van!

There’s not a lot to be said about this: if you need it there isn’t anything else! My only complaint is that there is no digital version (that has word break points), so it is either leafing through the book or making assumptions.The book itself is small so the typeface is as well. Nevertheless, I don’t find that a problem (possibly because I already need glasses for close-up stuff.
