Hard to get wrong

Granted, it is hard to mess up a translation dictionary but this one works well. 67,000 words! There hasn't been a word I couldn't find in English. Of course, it's harder to find words in greek since Greek ain't easy! This should be the dictionary you buy if you need one! Also, get a greek verb dictionary. It is a must! Just don't get 201 Modern greek verbs by Christides!Ìé÷áëéò

This dictionary is great for anyone who wants to learn some new greek words. You need to learn how to read the Greek alphabet but after that its a great resource. It has commen used words as well as hard to find ones. In my opinion its better then other Greek dictionaries I have used. It could help you perfect your Ellinika.
