4.0 out of 5 stars Maybe too Compact, September 28, 2000

By	Dan (Bedford, MA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hippocrene Compact Dictionary: Polish-English English-Polish (Hippocrene Compact Dictionaries) (Paperback)

The type in this tiny book is tiny, so tiny that it is blurry even under a magnifying glass. I also have a tiny German dicitonary with equally tiny type, but the printing is sharp and a lot easier to read. If you do not have perfect eye sight, I suggest you try to find a dictionary with larger type.

5.0 out of 5 stars oustanding phonetically, July 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Hippocrene Compact Dictionary: Polish-English English-Polish (Hippocrene Compact Dictionaries) (Paperback)

The greatest thing about this dictionary is that the pronunciation of the words is given in plain english;every dictionary I owned before was in english-british. The phonetical part of the dictionary was extremely difficult to pronounciate for someone who was not exposed to english language before. This particular dictionary is very unique and outstanding in this aspect.
