 THE BEST JAPANESE LANGUAGE DICTIONARY FOR BEGINNERS January 12, 2008
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I worn out my first copy of this dictionary during my 15 months as a Japanese Language student in Tokyo because I even used it when I went shopping. And I just bought a second. This may be the best Japanese-English English-Japanese Dictionary for beginning to intermediate students of Japanese (including the popular and far more expensive denki jisho), and actually, because of it's functional design, it works great with any of the few really good textbooks of Japanese you'll find. The price might be a little bit high, but in my country you won't find a Japanese language dictionary for less than 60 dls, so, as far as I'm concerned, I just purchased the best option for half the price.
It's definitely the most practical book I've bought from Kodansha.

I bought this dictionary because I wanted to study japanese and I was looking for a valuable tool. I have been studying japanese for a few months now and I find this dictionary an indispensible item in assisting me on countless occasions. The overall quality of this dictionary is just great; many japanese entries are clearly explained and the presence of conjugation and counter appendices are very helpful as well. I find this dictionary a very worthy investment!

This neat, well-organized Japanese-English/English-Japanese dictionary is the one I've used in many of my Japanese classes. It's Japanese entries are furigana (kana-only) and not romaji (Latin characters) so users should be familiar with Japanese alphabetical order when looking up the meaning of a Japanese word. This is too nice of a book to tote to class or on a plane, but it is very nice for home use. The usage explanations along with each word entry make this dictionary the best J-E/E-J out there. These explanations aid in understanding Japanese idomatic expressions and assure correct word choice. I think this dictionary is easier to use than buying the two seperate J-E and E-J dicctionaries from Kodansha. I wish Kodansha would print a larger version that's more of a traditional "dictionary size."
