The Amazon listing is misleading - it's not a new publication from June 2020. It's actually the 4th version just re-printed in 1 volume, it has 1110 pages. The only date you'll find inside the book is 1960. It's the same as this:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Arabic-English-Dictionary-Modern-Written-Arabic/dp/1607963876The only difference is it's a physically bigger book because they've made the margins around the page much wider.When I emailed Snowball Publishing about it, they replied telling me that the publication date of this copy was 14th June 2020. So when I subsequently asked them why this isn't printed in the book (if it is true), they stopped responding to my emails. Strange I know - but letting others be aware.Also, there is a printing error on page 1015 - the letter "ه" has not been printed (to denote the start of its section).

Warning! This is not the most recent edition of the dictionary. I bought it because it says Nov. 2011, and the 4th edition is 1994, so I assumed it must be a reprint of the 4th edition. On the copyright page there's no date at all and no mention of what edition it is. The only date anywhere is at the end of the introduction, and it's November 1960! I feel the information given and the Nov. 2011 date is very misleading.

This has translation only Arabic to English. Nonetheless it is seen as the preeminent dictionary in this larger. At the moment I find it hard to use

Item arrived on time good quality just what I needed.

About as useful as any book.Although I end up using google much more than this book.
