5.0 out of 5 stars excellent, June 15, 2002

M. Cookson (Colorado Springs) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Langenscheidt's Pocket German Dictionary (Paperback)
This book has survived being stuffed into my bookbag everyday for several school years, and I've taken it with me on a trip to Germany. I'm planning on taking it with me when I go to Germany in a few weeks. The spine hasn't broken and the plastic cover hasn't torn. It's rare that I haven't been able to find the word that I needed in this book, and the list of irregular verbs is very helpful. I own two German-English dictionaries, and, in spite of the fact that the other one is thicker and looks more likely to be useful, I absolutely prefer this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars top-notch German dictionary, March 27, 2002
This review is from: Langenscheidt's Pocket German Dictionary (Paperback)
This is a rare example of a pocket dictionary which can both fit in your pocket and be very useful when you're out and about. It has lasted me for eight years without falling apart and is easy to use with a thumb index for both the English-German and German-English sections. The dictionary leaves out some of the more obscure words and phrases from the larger versions of the Langenscheidt German dictionaries and is therefore perfect for people on the move who need a quick translation of an unknown word.

Added features include a phonetic alphabet chart, conversion tables and formulas for temperatures, weights and measures, lists of both German and English irregular verbs, a small grammar section plus translations of German propers names, states and abbreviations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended, July 29, 2004
This review is from: Langenscheidt's Pocket German Dictionary (Paperback)
This dictionary was a required book for my lower-level college German classes, and I can see why. I also have a Webster's German dictionary, and I am not as pleased with it as I am with the Langenscheidt. It is a great size to carry about in your bag, and, despite all the use (and abuse!) it has seen, mine is still in really good shape. In fact, I liked this so well that I have two copies - one for my desk at home, and the other to keep in my bag for school. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good, usable German dictionary.
