Is there a better Latin-English Dictionary?,
By

This review is from: Latin Dictionary Founded on Andrew's Edition of Freund's Latin Dictionary (Hardcover)
This is the classic Lewis and Short Latin-English Dictionary. Its only real contender is the newer Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD). However, the OLD is handicapped by its limited scope: anyone interested in Late, Ecclesiastical, Medieval, or Neo-Latin need not apply. Lewis and Short is more comprehensive. It's sole drawback is its great bulk and weight. If you are interested in a much smaller, but still quite complete, dictionary, consider the Chambers-Murray Latin-English dictionary.

Comprehensive yet handy volume--,

This review is from: Latin Dictionary Founded on Andrew's Edition of Freund's Latin Dictionary (Hardcover)
I find this Latin dictionary very friendly and convenient to use, compared to the O.L.D., yet still offering most lexicological resources needed for the advanced Latin student or the scholar. Its content is indeed broader (a plus!) than the O.L.D., but does not skimp on presenting the particulars of the entries. I do not recommend this dictionary for absolute beginners (although they could do much worse), but I do indeed suggest it to anyone in _advanced_ high school Latin classes, as well as to all college students (including those enrolled in graduate studies). Accordingly, I strongly recommend this publication to any "former" high school or college Latin student (such as myself) who wishes to refresh his/her knowledge of Latin and/or who just wants to have a great Latin dictionary in their home. A wonderful reference!

Excellent Dictionary...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Latin Dictionary Founded on Andrew's Edition of Freund's Latin Dictionary (Hardcover)
This text is the most comprehensive Latin dictionary one can buy. Each entry is jam-packed with information including several different uses of the word, places where other authors use the word in a particular context and more! Perfect for research papers and everyday translating alike.
