Reader Reviews:
Oversized pocket dictionary (5/5 people found this helpful)
For its size and weight this English-Danish dictionary is a big disappointment. The coverage of vocabulary is limited and mediocre for such a clumsy, heavy book. It's a pocket dictionary in disguise. I found very few modern words and phrases in it. The most annoying feature, (that it shares with other "English-Scandinavian" dictionaries) is that it provides a phonetic spelling for all the English entries, yet neglects to provide any for the danish words. This is helpful for danish users . but totally redundant for the native-english speakers. We need Anglo-Scandinavian dictionaries which are more helpful to English users. Dictionaries like this one are an overpriced disappointment, but it's just about adequate.
Excellent! (31/32 people found this helpful)
Excellent for several reasons: 1) Very enjoyable lay-out 2) per word also gender is mentioned, plural form, eventual irregularities 3) a lot of word combinations are mentioned in which the word usually occurs....worth the few extra pounds compared to a so called 'practical dictionary'. If you really want to learn the language, this dictionary should be one of your tools!
