Good Value for the Price, but you may wish to spend more for better.,

This review is from: Slovak-English English-Slovak Dictionary (Hippocrene Concise Dictionary) (Paperback)
This is a fair, but very abridged dictionary.
It is limited in scope. Also, very brief entries; for example, when you look up a noun in the English-Slovak section, the dictionary provides a Slovak word but not the gender - one must then go to the Slovak-English section to see the noun's gender in Slovak. (perhaps this is obvious for a more advanced student). It is also a bit strange that in some cases the English-Slovak translation does not appear in reverse in the Slovak-English section. Unfortunately I haven't found a good dictionary at a good price for Slovak, as there are for other languages. If you are a serious student, I think you will want to spend more for a better version. As a very basic reference, this book is a good value.

This review is from: Slovak-English English-Slovak Dictionary (Hippocrene Concise Dictionary) (Paperback)
If you are looking for a book to help translate actual slovak, look some where else. This book is very limited. If you need a book to take with you with a variety of spoken phrases this is your book.

This review is from: Slovak-English English-Slovak Dictionary (Hippocrene Concise Dictionary) (Paperback)
i have had gone through most of this book and this is my opinion.
it is not the greatest amount of help if you dont already know some slovak.this book is very limited,so if you purchase this book you should also get a book to help you with grammar.they are cheap,12-30 dollars. if you also purchase " Slovak-English, English-Slovak Dictionary & Phrasebook by Sylvia Lorinc and John M. Lorinc" then go ahead and buy this one too.the other book will explain briefly about grammar and also has phrases you can use in most situations.
