Great travel dictionary

Seems to be comprehensive. Great size for traveling yet print is large enough to read. Bought this as a companion to the electronic translator.

Truly a "mini" dictionary

I'm preparing for our fourth italian vacation. This year we're going to drive throughout Sicily where I hear they don't speak english like they do in the mainland. This dictionay contains english-italian and italian-english translations. It also includes useful phrases like,(I hope we don't need to use this one),"the engine is making strange noises". It's only 3" x 1" and will fit nicely in my fanny-pack.

Perfect little dictionary

I got this dictionary while I was taking Italian 1 class. I chose it because it was really small, so I figured it would suit not only my entry-level studies, but also be the best for travel. I am very pleased with it! In addition to having Italian-English and English-Italian translations, it has conversation guides, verb charts and other little helpers that are really helpful and practical. Great mini dictionary.

Great when in a pinch

This book is great when you are on the go and need to pack light. For its size, it contains a lot of vocabulary and the bold print is easy to read. There were very few times when I couldn't find the word I was searching for. You will survive as long as you take a larger dictionary with you.
