5.0 out of 5 stars best for the price, September 17, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This was the best lexicographical resource for Hopi at the time of its publication, and it is still the best for this price, but buyers should note the caveat in the introduction: "In addition to being limited to vocabulary items of common usage, the 'Concise Hopi and English Lexicon' treats only Third Mesa dialect."

The lexicon is bi-directional, with the first half Hopi-English and the second English-Hopi. Plurals are provided for all words (nouns, verbs, etc.)where this is relevant and duratives are provided for most verbs. Compound elements (such as adjectives) are cited along with their free forms and pre-pausal forms are cited where they cannot be predicted. Short notes on pronunciation and morphology are provided. The range of vocabulary is fairly comprehensive within the limits suggested by the designation 'concise', with roughly 4800 words in each section with a one-to-one correspondence between the English-Hopi and Hopi-English sections.

This is an excellent intermediate dictionary and the fact that it is two-way makes it indispensible for all learners of Hopi.
