4.0 out of 5 stars
A good buy for serious students of Bahasa Indonesia,
This review is from: An Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
This dictionary and its companion volume "An English-Indonesian Dictionary" I have found to be comprehensive and up-to-date. A very useful feature is the many examples of word usage in complete sentences. Where words are used only in a particular region (mostly in Java) this is indicated. When trying to understand newpaper articles (e.g. from the Internet) I have come across almost no words that haven't been in the dictionary. Altogether the dictionary pair were a very good buy.

This review is from: An Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
This dictionary is de facto standard for those Japanese who study Indonesian language. It contains many modern words, colloquial words and abbreviations. It also covers idioms. I've been using this dictionary for almost 20 years.

Hands down, the best Indonesian dictionary around,
By JFMP (Hanoi, Vietnam) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
We spent two years in Indonesia and lived by this volume (and its companion Indonesian-English volume). There is simply no comparison with any other dictionary in publication.

Most Comprehensive I've Seen,
By Cap'n Co (Fall River, Massachusetts United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
Along with its companion Kamus Inggris-Bahasa Indonesia, the best and most comprehensive I've seen. This is not a grammar. Try Malcom Mintz' A Student's Grammar of Malay and Indonesian for that.

The Most Popular Dictionary in Indonesia,
By A Customer
This review is from: An Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
The most popular and the most-widely used dictionary in Indonesia. Yet, this dictionary suffers a little bit in the translation because some of the words listed are not Indonesian (instead, it's Malaysian) or old vocabulary. However, in general , this should be one of the best dictionary of its kinds.

disappointing,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: An Indonesian-English Dictionary (Hardcover)
This dictionary is a big disappointment. There is no information on indonesian grammer. It does have a pronounciation guide but it lacks many things that you expect a dictionary to have. I'm sending my copy back.
