Intercontinental Dictionary Series

Okay kiddo, have you ever heard of a dictionary? It's a big book with a lot of words and their meanings in it. Now, imagine if there were people all around the world who spoke different languages and each language had its own dictionary. That's a lot of books!

Well, the intercontinental dictionary series is a group of dictionaries that have been put together from different countries and languages around the world. The people who make these dictionaries get together and share all the words and meanings that they have in their language.

Then, they put all the words and meanings into one big book that everyone can use. This way, even if you speak a different language from someone else, you can look up a word and find out what it means in your own language.

It's like having a translator in your pocket that helps you communicate with people all over the world. Isn't that cool?
