The Periplus Pocket Dictionaries are ideal for students and travelers, covering all the words needed for everyday situations andbasic travel. They were designed by academics and translators to fit the needs of people traveling to a foreign country-who may not want to spend hours in class learning a new language.

Each dictionary features over 3,000 entries in each direction-both to and from English-romanized forms and the authentic script where applicable, a brief guide to pronunciation, general vocabulary appropriate for beginners and intermediates, different senses of the same word clearly distinguished by explanatory glosses, and clear layout and readable type.
