useful for some purposes, but limited in key ways
The Kindle edition of this work suffers two major limitations. First, there is no way of quickly going to the entry of a word in the dictionary.

The Kindle edition of this work suffers two major limitations. First, there is no way of quickly going to the entry of a word in the dictionary. For example, if you want to find out what "Now" is in Arabic, the only way to get to the entry is to use Kindle's Find function, and to skip through every use of the word "now" in the text until you come to the entry. This renders the dictionary impractical in many uses. Secondly, the Arabic is not given in Arabic script, but in transliteration only. This makes it of very limited use if you are learning the Arabic alphabet as part of learning Arabic.

This dictionary is useful but limited in utility if you want to learn Lebanese. It does not cover many words used in the Lebanese dialect of Arabic. It makes specific references to Syrian and Egyptian words but not Lebanese.
