{"product_id":"이원택의-미-한-변형-사전","title":"Lee Won-Taek's American-Korean [Transformed] Dictionary","description":"Description: Unlike existing English-Korean dictionaries, this is a completely new kind of {prescription} dictionary aimed at curing the long-ailing state of English education. It captures the English that Americans actually use in everyday life in the 21st century—tracing word origins, organizing entries by derivative forms, and explaining them in a narrative style—all rendered through [Hangul pronunciation], [Hangul interpretation], [alternative Hangul expressions], and [Korean-language prescriptions] so that ordinary Korean readers can easily understand them.\n\nEven those born in Korea now find it hard to get by without knowing English. America's influence, in particular, is enormous. Yet American English cannot simply be adopted as Korea's national language. Is there no way to master American English while also enriching the Korean language? Is there no secret to learning English a little more easily?\n\nIt is clear that compiler Lee Won-Taek wrestled with this question for a long time. Believing that American English has been diverging considerably from British English, and that it is American-style English that Koreans need most, he devotes a great deal of space in this dictionary to American culture and civilization. Like a scientist, he brings sharp observation, precise description, and fair judgment; like a writer, he brings careful consideration, empathy, and fresh creativity.\n\nEnglish-Korean dictionaries published until now have tended to feel cookie-cutter, all cut from the same cloth. Lee Won-Taek, however, boldly broke free of that old mold, reaching what might fairly be called the level of a true pioneer. In the compiler's own words, this book was written with the spirit of \"go for broke\"—like a wild horse cutting across the open sky—making it a single work of sweeping, encyclopedic scholarship.","brand":"IBOOKPARK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49623772954852,"sku":"1395356887","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9788\/6692\/files\/k332730723_1.jpg?v=1786421658","url":"https:\/\/ibookpark.com\/en\/products\/%ec%9d%b4%ec%9b%90%ed%83%9d%ec%9d%98-%eb%af%b8-%ed%95%9c-%eb%b3%80%ed%98%95-%ec%82%ac%ec%a0%84","provider":"IBOOKPARK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
