2.0 out of 5 stars
Dictionary not complete enough,
By
This review is from: Universal German Dictionary: German-English, English-German (Langenscheidt Universal Dictio) (Paperback)
Langenscheidt has always been a name I trust when it comes to German dictionaries, but I was very disappointed with this particular one. I bought it because of its small size to take with me on a recent trip to Germany, but I was continually frustrated when I would look for a word and not find it! And these were not, in my opinion, obscure words. I finally went into a book store in Regensburg, Germany and bought a larger edition, still small enough to carry around, but much more complete with around 137,000 words! I left the smaller one with my sister-in-law for her to use with her grandchildren.

The perfect travel companion,
By
This review is from: Langenscheidt's Universal German Dictionary: German-English English-German (English and German Edition) (Paperback)
This mini dictionary is only slightly larger than a box of cigarettes. Its soft plastic cover is extremely pliable and withstands the challenges of frequent pocket wear very well. The same is true for the binding. Where other pocket dictionaries couldn't take the abuse of being worn in front or back pockets for extended periods of time, this little beauty holds up perfectly well, just like its previous edition. While the 35,000 references provided in this dictionary will not be sufficient as a foundation for a professional translator or interpreter, this travel companion is perfect for business trips as well as leisurely vacations.

4.0 out of 5 stars
small and compact, a true pocket dictionary,
By klee (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Universal German Dictionary: German-English, English-German (Langenscheidt Universal Dictio) (Paperback)
I bought this dictionary to replace a defective Langenscheidt's Pocket Dictionary. The size is nice as it is easier to carry around, and I like the plastic cover and blue headwords. I am an intermediate German student and so far I have found every word I was looking for. The only thing I don't like is that, unlike the pocket dictionary,it doesn't have the blue tabs for each section of the alphabet, which makes looking up several words faster. But don't be fooled, this one would actually fit in your pocket, unlike the actual pocket dictionary, which is bigger. The size of this one reminds me of the old Lilliput ones Langenscheidt used to make.
