Most Helpful Customer Reviews   1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: off-base dictionary, 18 Feb 1999 By A Customer Professor Echeruo knows too well that Igbo people live both in the eastern and mid-western parts of Nigeria. The map in the dictionary, while showing this fact, claimed that the Igbo live in eastern part of Nigeria. Also, Mike knows too well that the alphabet "c" does not exist in Igbo orthography. "Chi" is inseparable with the Igbo in philosophy and cosmology. Would Professor Echeruo wish that we begin to spell it "Ci"? I believe that the "dictionary" can be vastly improved with many omitted words and better production.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)   "ch" becomes "c", "k" becomes "c" dictionary, 9 Feb 1999 By A Customer The excitement of having a dictionary authored by one of our respected scholars everporates as soon as one sees the "dictionary" itself. Pink cover, few pages, over two thirds of Igbo words ignored. Tiny lettesets, and the whole bit. Why?  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
