Romanian-English/English-Romanian Practical Dictionary

The print is super small and I had trouble with some of the translations.

I have bought several phrasebooks and I still have no idea why I continue to do so. Traveling in Eastern Europe I have found that most young people (under 35ish) speak a fair amount of English and seem to enjoy the opportunity to use it. Plus my ability to wrap my tongue around most of the words in the books just result in frustration. A smile and hand gesture get me a lot further than murdering someone else's native language. I hear that there are loads of phone apps out there as well.....

I would definitely recommend this if you're thinking about it. The Rom-Eng section marks where the stress is in every word, which has been a HUGE help to me because I don't have many ways to listen to the language. I'm impressed by the sheer number of words in this dictionary (it even has some oddly specific ones), so if you're trying to find a word to translate, there's a very good chance it'll be in here.Side note: the texture of the cover is very nice and it arrived in perfect condition.

The first part is a grammatical summary that is quite good. The dictionary section is missing words that I could not find and I have had to go to the internet to get the translation or to my Romanian friend.

A valuable resource for anybody studying the Romanian language.

Great dictionary. Sometimes I wish it had more words because I have run across words in reading news and such that are not in here, but it has plenty of content for a practical dictionary. Great dictionary for newbies and intermediates.

A good idea to have this if you are learning just a little bit or trying to learn fluently.

This is a very attractive and nice-sized book; good for travel or sticking in a backpack or computer bag. It's well constructed and I like the format and layout of this dictionary. I plan to use it a lot when I travel to Romania.

Not very good! There are missing words in the Romanian part of the dictionary, for example, I couldn’t find poate. If you look up ‘perhaps’, it’s listed there, but it’s not in the Romanian part! This is always a sign of a shoddy dictionary

Have not used yet but look good

The title, led me to believe that a Practical Dictionary would contain phrases that would commonly be used. The book does not. It is a dictionary only. As a dictionary it is very thorough and contains many words. It isn’t helpful if you’re trying as a tourist to ask questions.

Esse dicionário tem uma ótima qualidade para o estudante de romeno iniciante/intermediário. A capa tem material diferenciado, o miolo não tem páginas finas, as entradas das palavras tanto em romeno quanto em inglês são muito bem organizadas. As seções das línguas são bem separadas (você consegue achar onde há a entrada em romeno e onde há a entrada em inglês), há um pequeno roteiro de características da língua romena, que ajuda bastante na questão da flexão e da pronunciação. Vale muito a pena encomendar esse produto e o preço está de acordo com sua qualidade. Estou muito satisfeita.

This book is well organized and is of the same quality as any dictionary you would have for Spanish French or Italian. Was a bit "getting used to" in the organization of letters that also have accents on them but it makes sense. Just took a while for me to look further for a particular word after thinking that the word was "missed". Just in a different location!This book is a must if you are learning Romanian.
