4.0 out of 5 stars Good Resource!
This is a great resource for those learning Kyrgyz. Examples of usage of words are included in each definition. Unfortunately there is no English-Kyrgyz version. I would recommend this for the serious Kyrgyz language student. Be prepared for the high price of this book!

This review is from: Dic Kyrgyz-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
This is a learner's dictionary of Kyrgyz. It took exactly two years to complete. Two missing features seriously detract from this book's usefulness, however. First, the reference grammar that is mentioned in the acknowledgements was "lost", after I departed from the organization that funded the project. Second, two capital letters of the Cyrillic fonts mysteriously vanished en masse, before the manuscript went to press. The caps occur in some of the headlines of news articles quoted in the book. Sadly, these gaps will be a headache for learners. Although the errors were caused after my departure, I must bear some shame because my name appears on the cover.
