The Milet New Learner’s Dictionary is an updated and fully revised edition of the best-selling Milet Learner’s Dictionary . This dictionary includes over 35,000 words, phrases and proverbs which are fully explained via definitions, translations and idiomatic equivalents. The dictionary is suitable for studying Turkish and for travel in Turkey. Review: aimed at Turkish speakers, but still quite serviceable - It's a very reasonable dictionary in terms of vocabulary and presentation. However, be aware, this book is intended for Turkish speakers. Turkish entries just have an English equivalent, no more -- in particular no pronunciation. But if I look up, say, Jay (the bird), on the English side, there is a pronunciation (cey), and the abbreviation i. (for ism, noun), and the Turkish equivalent. The books opens with a conjugation table for English verbs. So if you are an English speaker, this dictionary offers no support beyond bare translations, in particular no pronunciations or even a pronunciation guide. Admittedly, Turkish spelling is damn close to Spanish's in being phonetic. Review: Too simple - This dictionary is to simple even for elementary schoolchildren. I hoped that it will help my children, but they cannot find many of the word meanings they need to know in grade 4 and 5. Simply, don't go for it unless you are looking for basic level dictionary.
