1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of space, 20 Oct 2002

By A Customer

What a disappointment! I was looking for a good mid-size dictionary to take with me on a language course instead of my pocket dictionary or big WSOY one-way dictionaries... but unbelievably this dictionary has fewer terms translated, and in MUCH less detail, than my pocket-sized paperback dictionary ("Suomi-Englanti-Suomi Taskusanakirja" published by Gummerus in Finland, authors Ilkka Rekiaro and Douglas Robinson) which is about one sixth the size of this bulky volume!

It's extremely simplistic and definitely not worth the price - or even the shelf space.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear, Understandable, 7 Jan 2001

By	M. G. Casteleijn (Oulu Finland, native of San Francisco..) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is one of the best dictionaries on finnish-english i have ever seen or used. Very easy to follow with lots of words, and specific lessons. Definately recommended..

1.0 out of 5 stars useless dictionary, 24 Sep 2002

By	Stephaan Vanryssen "svr4m" (Ghent; Belgium) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I used the Suomalais-englantilainen opiskelusanakirja
by Aino Wuolle before, and I thought this would be a better and more complete dictionary. Forget it! Even simple words are missing, grammatical information is skant and declensions are not given.
CErtainly not a good book to start with. The only advantage over my old Wuolle is its size...

I bought this dictionary unseen and it was a huge disappointment. The definitions are sparse and unclear. They do not indicate whether a word is a verb, noun etc. Read more
