5.0 out of 5 stars Great for any student of German, November 30, 2000

By	A Customer (London, UK) - See all my reviews

Langenscheidt is always reliable no matter what the language, but, as a German company, you'd expect their German dictionary to be supreme. This one doesn't disappoint. I've lived in Germany and Austria and I can count on one hand the number of times I couldn't find a legitimate word in this dictionary. It even includes such Austrian (i.e. non-standard) words like 'Marille' (apricot) and 'Obers' (cream) and is loaded with phrases I haven't been able to find in any other dictionaries like 'sich um des Kaisers Bart streiten' (to squabble over little things).

Besides a 700-page dictionary this book also includes lists of irregular verbs, abbreviations (in German and English), geographical and historical names (also in German and English), musical works and numerals. At the beginning there is a pronounciation guide and in the middle there is a handy weight and measure conversion chart.

A necessity for anyone studying German.

5.0 out of 5 stars A simply superior dictionary., June 16, 1999

By A Customer

Langenscheidt foreign language dictionarys are simply superior. They provide all the ESSENTIAL information when learning/using a foreign language. I'm surprised with the book nearly every time I open it. A great learning tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive German-English, English-German dictionary., January 7, 1999

By A Customer

Out of a sea of options for German-English dictionaries, Langensheidt has always set the standard for clarity, breadth, and depth. This book should be the cornerstone of your German library. Excellent for college / high school students.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not Up To Date
This dictionary is dated 1995 and does not reflect the latest spelling reforms. A new edition is badly needed. I'm returning my copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good reference
Very comprehensive dicitionary, covers many idiomatic expressions (as well as dirty words). The section in the back on German language reforms is especially helpful.
