Summary:

This edition is written in English. However, there is a running
Korean thesaurus at the bottom of each page for the more difficult
English words highlighted in the text. There are many editions of The
Glimpses of the Moon. This edition would be useful if you would like
to enrich your Korean-English vocabulary, whether for
self-improvement or for preparation in advanced of college
examinations. Webster's edition of this classic is organized to
expose the reader to a maximum number of difficult and potentially
ambiguous English words. Rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions
are given lower priority compared to "difficult, yet commonly used"
English words. Rather than supply a single translation, many words
are translated for a variety of meanings in Korean, allowing readers
to better grasp the ambiguity of English without using the notes as a
pure translation crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning
within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and
understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on
previous pages. This edition is helpful to Korean-speaking students
enrolled in an English Language Program (ELP), an English as a
Foreign Language (EFL) program, an English as a Second Language
Program (ESL), or in a TOEFL® or TOEIC® preparation program. Students
who are actively building their vocabularies in Korean or English may
also find this useful for Advanced Placement® (AP®) tests. TOEFL®,
TOEIC®, AP® and Advanced Placement® are trademarks of the Educational

This book is one of a series of Webster's paperbacks that allows the
reader to obtain more value from the experience of reading.
Translations are from Webster's Online Dictionary, derived from a
