This new edition of Vocabulary in Use Intermediate still retains the features that made the first edition so popular:
- The format of presentation on the left-hand page and practice on the right-hand page.
- Approaching vocabulary in a variety of ways: topics (e.g., Food), word formation (e.g., Prefixes), words and grammar (e.g., Uncountable and plural nouns), collocation and phrases (e.g., Make, do, and take), functions (e.g., Request, invitations, and suggestions), concepts (e.g., Time), varieties of English (e.g., Formal and informal English), etc.
- A student-friendly Answer key, including not only correct answers to right/wrong exercises, but also possible answers for more open-ended exercises.
- Usage notes that are ideal for self-study learners.
- A complete Index, which lists all the target words and phrases.
