GOOD ENOUGH,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Dakota English Dictionary (Borealis Books) (Paperback)
This being about the only Dakota-English dictionary still in print makes it good enough. But there are a lot of words you will not find in here, and forget about help for which tenses to use. It is limited, often frustrating, but it is the only one. I also had to purchase the English-Dakota dictionary, because for some ridiculous reason (most dictionaries provide both (Forgein Language)-English & English-(Forgein Language)translations in ONE book) this dictionary only goes one way, so you have to buy another one to get the rest! Annoying & Expensive!

Puzzling,
This review is from: Dakota English Dictionary (Borealis Books) (Paperback)
My mother is a Dakota speaker and she doesn't recognize many of the words in this dictionary. Many of the words are probably old and no longer used but as I read in the New Lakota Dictionary many words in this dictionary are incorrect. The New Lakota Dictionary includes words from the Dakota dialects and my mother recognizes most of those.

This review is from: Dakota English Dictionary (Borealis Books) (Paperback)
I got this because my son is Dakota Sioux. It has come in handy, but there are still things his father says that I can not find in this dictionary.
