Title: Esperanto-English English-Esperanto Dictionary & Phrasebook by Joseph F. Conroy ISBN: 0-7818-0736-0 Publisher: Hippocrene Books Pub. Date: May, 1999 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $13.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.86 (7 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Excellent, for the purpose it was intended for...
Comment: Let's be clear, you won't really learn esperanto using only this book. It is too limited as to it's scope. However as a simple phrasebook and dictionary for the occasional esperanto user, it does quite well. It's a great little book to carry around (unless you have room to carry a full dictionary or a complete language workbook) in your purse or briefcase.
As a small travel book for travelers who "may" use esperanto in their tavels, this does the job quite nicely.
Rating: 4
Summary: A nice little phrasebook
Comment: Yeah, the dictionary section is less than adequate, but (as another mentioned) it was an add-on, and the purpose of the book isn't to be a standalone dictionary.
For my purposes, as an absolute beginner, the grammar and stock phrase portions were immensely useful. The dictionary is OK, for very light reference duty, but obviously a handbook this small is not the be-all-end-all dictionary. Go buy an actual translating dictionary to go with Conroy's handbook, and you've got a great teaching pair.
The small size is handy, too, for slipping in a coat pocket or briefcase.

Summary: The "dictionary" is an add-on.
Comment: As others have said, this book really isn't a useful dictionary. However, as a phrase book, and quick language reference, it's great. If you plan on buying this, I highly recommend getting an actual translation dictionary to go with it. Still, the sample telephone answering machine recording is on my voice mail....
Tiel alioj diris, cxi tio libro ne-estas vere vortaro utila. Ankoraux, tiel fraz-libro, kaj tiel referenco rapida lingva, gxi estas belega. Se vi planus acxeti cxi tion, mi rekomendegas ankaux acxeti vortaron efektivan tradukan. Ankoraux, la provajxa telefona mesagxo estas uzata je mia vocx-posxto.
