1.0 out of 5 stars Useful, assuming it stays together long enough to use it, March 30, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Hippocrene Standard Dictionary English-Hindi Hindi-English (With Romanized Pronunciation) (Paperback)
It's printed in India. This means the paper isn't what you're expecting, in addition the ink sometimes bleeds through. As if that isn't enough, some of the pages just simply fall out of the book. Add to that the fact that the font myseriously changes halfway through the Hindi section, and you have yourself a rather unprofessional attempt at a dictonary.

1.0 out of 5 stars not a very comprehensive dictionary, February 18, 2001
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Hippocrene Standard Dictionary English-Hindi Hindi-English (With Romanized Pronunciation) (Paperback)
Like many Hippocrine dictionaries, the number of words entered is few. I bought this dictionary for a friend because it has romanized spelling, but I found out that even that is not useful, because the english to hindi does not give romanized characters. So, I am returning it.

There are many other much better dictionaries on the market.

4.0 out of 5 stars Romanized edition is the key, July 12, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Hippocrene Standard Dictionary English-Hindi Hindi-English (With Romanized Pronunciation) (Paperback)
The Romanized edition is the key to this dictionary. I do not have any help from anyone to learn this language, so the Romanized edition helps when you are not sure of the correct script. There could have been more words. All in all it is pretty good.
