Sara Review

I received the book in the condition that it was described. They also had great service in shipping me the book.

If it's good enough for the Peace Corps...

Next to my mefloquine tablets, this was the next-most-used resource the PC gave me. "Short" and "comprehensive" are generally mutually exclusive, but this dictionary managed to strike a good balance. If you're looking for a desk reference, there are more comprehensive dictionaries around. But if you're looking for something that doubles as a portable language reference and something to throw at black mambas, this is it.

Concise Swahili and English Dictionary : Swahili-English/Eng

I ordered this dictionary when I was writing my novel Death by Bad Magic, I needed to have my Priest to speak in one of Africa's oldest languages and if I had not had this wonderful dictionary to guide me I really don't think I could have written my novel.

Useful for ESF Education Officers

I am a novice Swahili speaker (knowing only that "uhuru" means freedeom and credit for even that goes to Star Trek). This book allowed me to pick up the rudiments of the language well enough that I could converse with a teacher who had spent some time in Uganda before coming to Hong Kong. I would recommend this book highly to those in education circles who have a hard time when confronted by colleagues with superior Swahili skills.

Concise and effective Swahili/ English dictionary

As a concise reference book on this language, this publication is effective and I able to see how to quickly use it to translate business documents and other correspondence
