Product Description

Bryn Mawr Classical Review, May 3, 2003
..for those that read Greek on the subway, the Pocket Oxford Classical Greek Dictionary is definitely the lexicon to have.

Review
This new dictionary will no doubt prove invaluable to those embarking on their first steps in 'real' Greek with the absence of a course book to guide them ... anyone undertaking post-beginners' courses either at university or elsewhere will also benefit greatly from this volume ... clear layout, large print and, genuine affordability ... the editors should be praised for the clarity of vision underpinning this dictionary, which will surely make a major contribution to the study of the Greek language. JACT Review, Summer 2003

5.0 out of 5 stars A very good resource for anyone studying Ancient Greek, 13 Feb 2003
By A Customer
I was a bit unsure about buying this book because I already have two Greek lexica. I was persuaded to buy it because of its English - Greek section, which many do not have. I am currently doing my Greek A Level and anyone who has ever studied using N&H's "Greek Prose Composition" will know that the vocabulary in the back is not always as helpful as it might be! The rest of the dictionary is very good. The Greek-English section is very thorough and the text is well set out. Well done to the authors for including thumb tabs for the letters - it makes finding a word much quicker! Even more helpful is the fact that the dictionary includes an index of proper names (essential if you are unsure of the accepted English tranliteration of a Greek name), a list of principle parts of common irregular verbs and a map of Ancient Greece. All in all a very valuable asset and well worth the money. Also very helpful is the "Oxford Grammar of Classical Greek" by James Morewood.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent handbook, 26 Mar 2007
By Charles Soper (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Covers almost all NT words, although its focus is classical Greek, very helpful table of 100 irregular principle parts and the English to Greek is valuable too. Again and again the authors have so helpfully preempted a beginner's difficulties with tracing a root by helpfully including entries for unusual aorists and other parts in the dictionary itself.

Highly recommended (large) pocket dictionary.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellent reference to start with., 10 Feb 2008
having studied Ancient Greek for 5 years now, I would say that this book may turn out to be very useful sometimes, expecially when in a hurry or not at home: it is very user-friendly and clear.
However, if you want to have a deeper insight into Ancient Greek and the different translations/connotations of words, then choose something more professional.
