Macquarie Pocket Dictionary 3Rd Edition

SERVICE UPDATE 3/02/2025

As of Monday, 3 February, heavy rainfall and road closures continue to cause delivery delays across Far North Queensland. With weather conditions worsening over the weekend, the Bruce Highway remains closed in multiple locations.

As a result, our couriers are unable to transport freight into or out of Cairns and Townsville and for a minimum of the next 48 hours. We are monitoring the situation and will provide updates as they become available.

If an item on your back-to-school list is or was out of stock at the time of pack collection, it will have been noted on the paperwork supplied with your order as being on backorder for you. The delivery delays will affect the length of time that backordered items take to arrive to us from our suppliers - this is beyond our control. Please be patient with our staff.

Open Monday Tuesday Friday from 8am-4pm. Open Wednesday Thursday from 8am-5pm.Open Saturday from 8am - 12pm closing strictly at midday.

This dictionary is based on the same research which produces The Macquarie Dictionary, also in its third edition. This research has produced the most authoritative, up-to-date and definitive record of Australian English currently available. The Macquarie Pocket Dictionary contains almost 1000 new headwords and definitions and now includes a label, Australian, for those words and senses whose usage is limited to Australia. Whether it is used in a home or school context, Australians have every right to be proud of this dictionary, which has been entirely developed, produced and printed in Australia. The comprehensive Macquarie Pocket Dictionary contains over 35,000 headwords, including more than 5,000 encyclopedic entries in a handy hardback pocket size. Illustrative phrases and a new respelling pronunciation guide now make it even easier for students to attack unfamiliar words. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of contents Editorial staff Preface How to use the dictionary Abbreviations and symbols used in the dictionary A POCKET DICTIONARY OF AUSTRALIAN ENGLISH Appendixes: Outline of English grammar Metric conversion Paper sizes Military ranks Roman numerals Abbreviations for common academic qualifications The periodic table The international system of units (SI) Points of the compass Related titles MACQUARIE POCKET THESAURUS POCKET MACQUARIE WRITERS GUIDE
