4.0 out of 5 stars
Good Yiddish dictionary,
This review is from: The Yiddish Dictionary Sourcebook: A Transliterated Guide to the Yiddish Language (Hardcover)
Herman Gelvin's 'Transliterated Guide to the Yiddish Language' is a very good dictionary for those who do not read Hebrew characters. It contains lenghty sections E-Y and Y-E and of every word gives the translation both in Roman characters and in 'oyshes'.
3.0 out of 5 stars
OK dictionary,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Yiddish Dictionary Sourcebook: A Transliterated Guide to the Yiddish Language (Hardcover)
This is a very bare bones dictionary. When you look up a word, there's no context for understanding its meaning. However, if you can't read Yiddish characters, this is about as good as it gets. If you CAN read Yiddish, Weinrich's dictionary is the best. I use both--one to supplement the other. As to Amazon, they came thru with no problem.
