Pocket Burmese Dictionary: Burmese-English English-Burmese

The book was good and it went to the right address

Every since I started studying Burmese, I have been on the lookout for a solid "pocket" Burmese-English/English-Burmese dictionary to carry around instead of retreating to later lookup the words from the large dictionaries on my bookshelf. Alas, after finding several small dictionaries they were either inadequate, poorly organized or just plain too difficult to use. Nothing seemed to bridge the gap. And as much as I appreciate phrasebooks, their dictionaries in the back tend to be very limited. But this dictionary is exactly what I've been looking for! As a low-intermediate speaker of Burmese, I took this dictionary along on a recent trip to Myanmar and found it quite useful for day-to-day conversations. I was able to look up many words quickly and likewise when conversations came to a halt, some of my Burmese friends were able to find the word they were looking for and show it to me so I could understand. Is this dictionary perfect? No. Could it include some more words? Yes. But I loved it and found it quite helpful. And since the product only advertises itself as a pocket dictionary and not more, I give it five stars.

Very useful for understanding the basics but not for academic.

It's ok for travelling. Not very detailed, but at least small and light.

ミャンマー語はマイナーなので、仕方ないのですが、坦々と一対一対応で訳してあるだけで例文等は全くないです。English→burmese、burmese→English各2000語強ですが、単語選抜がいいらしく、使い勝手は今のところNo1です。
