STAY AWAY!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bosnian-English/English-Bosnian Dictionary and Phrasebook (Dictionary & Phrasebooks Backlist) (Paperback)
This dictionary is poorly edited (with numerous typos), incomplete (random information that does not reflect the needs of a basic speaker) and, in parts, embarrassingly childish (the introduction suggests, among other bizarre comments, that Bosnian may be too difficult to bother to learn well? ).Although it is difficult to find detailed Bosnian dictionaries, older English/Serbo-Croatian variants are still quite relevant (the nuances for advanced usage notwithstanding) and the English/Bosnian dictionary from Nikolina S. Uzicanin is a SIGNIFICANTLY better purchase (for a pocket-sized book) than this one.

Bosnian Language,
By A Customer
This review is from: Bosnian-English/English-Bosnian Dictionary and Phrasebook (Dictionary & Phrasebooks Backlist) (Paperback)
This book is a decent introduction into Bosnian language, which is one of the South Slavic languages. Sometimes the author is out of touch with some recent development in the language, but the overall impression of the dictionary is very good. This book is a useful tool for a beginner or a traveler.

The Worst Dictionary Phrasebook I have Encountered,
By Plotfather (Los Angeles, Ca, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bosnian-English/English-Bosnian Dictionary and Phrasebook (Dictionary & Phrasebooks Backlist) (Paperback)
I can't understand how this work got published. In addition to the numerous typos (autobuski stanica instead of autobuska stanica etc) the phrases are terribly translated and in some cases will get you laughed at.
This work is in dire need of editing by someone who actually has a good grasp of the Bosnian language. Otherwise it is a waste of one's hard earned money.
