Together with the Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar this is the best reference available. It presents almost every grammar problem in a clear way full of examples in Kanji&Kana, romaji and English translations.
It is especially useful for those preparing for the Japanese Language Proficiency Tests and the best part is that you don't need to be a linguist to go through this book as the explanations are clear and easy to follow.

I purchased this grammar dictionary whilst taking an Advanced Japanese Translation class at university last year. It is the second book in a series of Basic, Intermediate and Advanced dictionaries. The translation class required a variety of dictionaries to be to hand at all times, and I found that this particular one saved me from purchasing several to fulfil my grammar look-up requirements (a blessing if you're as student - these books usually do not come cheap!). As to my background, I studied Japanese at an undergraduate level for four years, including a year abroad in Japan.
I would recommend the whole set of books in this series if you can afford them, but if you are just looking for one text to check on those tricky grammar points, this one should fulfil most of your needs. It is not for a a student just starting out with the basics of grammar, and I wouldn't even recommend a grammar dictionary at all until you have a good working knowledge of Japanese vocabulary and can converse at a basic level. However, once you begin to tackle translation, you'll need a decent grammar dictionary to hand.
The dictionary is very easy to use, and after a few look-ups, you should find it easy to locate the grammar points you are looking for. This series is particularly useful in that it goes above and beyond basic interpretation. Certain elements of grammar can be used in multiple ways, and it explores this fully. It is not too complex, but offers you several explanations of how certain parts of grammar are used in an easy to understand format. Kanji, kana, romaji and English translations are available here, which makes it extremely user-friendly.

easy to understand, great explanations and uses relatable sentences. Especially like how it explains when to use it, what to exclude and most importantly how to form the sentences (V-dictionary formばかり）

Ideal supportive dictionary for students studying the Japanese language. Comprehensive in structure and detail as an additional reference for the student. My daughter thought it a very useful additional language aid
