My little friend!, April 21, 2008
This review is from: Langenscheidt Universal Dictionary German: German-English/English-German (Paperback)
I bought this book in preperation for the begining of a foreign exchange year in Germany, and I use it just about every day!!! It's become my best pal when it comes to a word I just can't think of! The worst part is (and I should be ashamed) that a lot of the time now, I've got to look up a word I only know in German to find out the English, because I know what it means, but can't remember English anymore. So, of course the best way to learn a language is to move to the country, but then sometimes you just need a little help, even after 8 months here, I still need to look up some German words... and in the begining I was looking up a lot of words to make my point known in German, but now... I'm looking up words to remember them in English....
But every traveler deffenately needs a nice compact dictionary.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, especially for those spending any time in Germany!
I've deffenately got my $7.95 use out of it!
Love it!
and Langenscheidt is generally a great brand too!
Tschüß! und wie immer, Viele Grüße aus Schmalkalden/Thüringen, Deutschland!

Small print-overpriced, January 19, 2011
This review is from: Langenscheidt Universal Dictionary German: German-English/English-German (Paperback)
Although this is a really classy company who honors their return policy perfectly, this particular product is way overpriced.[...] We expected a larger book with normal 12 pt font, but this is a pocket sized book with 10 pt or less print size.
[...]This was shipped from Germany. I will read the description closer next time.
The quality of the dictionary itself was Very Good and the condition was like new.

smaller than anticipated, February 16, 2010
This review is from: Langenscheidt Universal Dictionary German: German-English/English-German (Paperback)
Because it is Langenscheidt it is a good dictionary, however, it is palm sized, not book sized.
