4.0 out of 5 stars Great if you can read in Japanese, especially for students, 2 May 2001

By	k.a.smejkal@rhbnc.ac.uk (England) - See all my reviews

I am an English university student studying Japanese, and I find this a really thorough dictionary which I am very happy with. It has lots of kanji and gives example sentences to help out if you don't know the context of the word. The sample sentences are in plain form though, so beware of using them directly in an essay which should be in polite form. If you are English speaking and cannot read Japanese (i.e. you are only learning to speak it) then don't get it, as all Japanese words are in kana.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good, but..., 6 Mar 2004

By	J Meaden (UK) - See all my reviews

This is big! I expected it to be big, but its bigger than that :)
Not very portable at all, this is really a leave at home book.
Size:50mm x 140mm x 190mm Weight: 1.1Kg

It contains just what you think it does. Its invaluable as “the ultimate” dictionary for someone studying Japanese. The only close alternative to this, might be to buy the J->E and E->J dictionaries separately. Be careful of the smaller dictionaries, as the kanji can be unreadable. This has nice big text, and you can see the kanji pretty well. Maybe even bigger would have been nice, but then the English would have looked like a childrens book :)

The only problem I have found so far is that there are mistakes :\
My Japanese teacher took a look through it and found mistakes in the kanji right away…

That said, there really is no alternative. If you want something better than your pocket dictionary, this is the one to buy

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent book, 12 Dec 2000

By A Customer

the book is excellent as it gives several examples and cases for the words. It would have been better if there was romaji as well....but i guess this makes sure you are up to scratch on your hiragana and katakana!!!
