5 out of 5 stars Nice pocket guide   June 19, 2008

Here's another pocket guide I will definitely pack on the next trip to Budapest. I'll have on hand something to quickly check the meanings of the strange, Finnish-like language I doubt I can ever learn.

I highly recommend this guide, particularly at the low used prices. My copy, supposedly used, came in clean, bright and new-looking condition.

I couldn't be happier.



2 out of 5 stars Too limited for me   November 10, 2006

They could have put the text in 2 columns, and included 1/3 again as many words. There were so many words we looked up that were not there, it was very frustrating.

It's a handy size, and did a nice job of concisely explaining the structure of the Hungarian Language.

Plus it really needed a few pages of basic phrases.



5 out of 5 stars Best Small Dictionary   August 22, 2005
Kimberly Bares (Chicago, IL USA)
This dictionary is the perfect size for traveling. It offers a wide array of words in both English and Hungarian, plus helpful information on pronunciation, basic grammar and conversions. Highly recommend it for beginners.


3 out of 5 stars you could do better   August 1, 2005

If you're traveling as a tourist, this dictionary should be adequate for your needs. The dictionary is what it is: concise. However, as a student studying Hungarian, I feel that a volume that encompasses more would better serve the purpose of a reference book. As the book has only 10,000 words, I found many gaps when I went to look up a word in Hungarian or to try to find the Hungarian translation of an English word. A handy quick reference, but be sure that that's all you need it for.


5 out of 5 stars very handy pocket dictionary   March 4, 2005
Living in Budapest (Budapest, Hungary (originally Ann Arbor, MI))
5 out of 6 found this review helpful

This dictionary is great for everyday use. Most other English-Hungarian/Hungarian-English dictionaries are big and hardcover, making them too bulky to carry around for quick reference. I would highly recommend this dictionary for tourists or students who want a handy reference to carry around.
