VITA BELLUM EST,
By
This review is from: The Bantam New College Latin & English Dictionary (The Bantam New College Dictionary Series) (Mass Market Paperback)
With that said, The New College-Latin and English Dictionary, is by far the most comprehensive Latin dictionary I have put my hands on. In comparison to the Cassell Dictionaries, The New College Dictionary offers a simple layout packed with as much information as its 663 pgs. can handle. I first began using this particular dictionary the beginner of my third year of latin, with logical grammatical paradigms and a 70,000 word dictionary it is hard to exploit a flaw in this dictionary. Athough it is hard to give an indepth review on a dictionary, the only reassurance I can provide is that this dictionary will definately not disappoint a Latin scholar who is looking to translate classical or middle age Latin as a scholar or hobbyist.

Best collegiate Latin Dictionary,
By Mrs. Shana B. Garrett "Microbiologist with a ... (Louisiana, United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Bantam New College Latin & English Dictionary (The Bantam New College Dictionary Series) (Mass Market Paperback)
I purchased several Latin dictionaries prior to this one and this is by far the best. Other Latin dictionaries were almost Byzantine in the way they presented their information. This dictionary is straight forward and includeds instruction on conjugations and declensions. It also lists the four principle parts for every verb! Who could ask for more? No more wondering whether or not mitto conjugates as a regular verb. It has helped me to excel in my Latin 1001 and I plan on using it throughout my studies as a Latin minor.

Excellent Summary of Latin Grammar with Good Exception Lists,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Bantam New College Latin & English Dictionary (The Bantam New College Dictionary Series) (Mass Market Paperback)
I am not quite sure where to begin comparing this to the amount words in the dictionary, as I could never begin comparing it to the mammoth Oxford Latin Dictionary, but it is definitely one of the most comprehensive "pocket" Latin dictionaries on the market. I did notice several careless mistakes in spelling definitions (!), but nothing that someone who is knowledgeable enough of the English language to be using the dictionary would not catch. Overall?
