Customer Reviews

Not useless!...entirely....
As a source of many words, this is an okay book.
My issues?
The book provides tranlations of words, without context for their use, thereby requiring you to lookup the translated word. Many translation dictionaries make such mistakes, but what makes this so difficult with this book is that many of the words provided in one language, are NOT in the other language! Thereby effectivly making you GUESS as which word to use for any given situation.

Not a good dictionary
I need to buy something for my husband who does not speak a word of Ukrainian. Looked at the firt page of this book and it was enough for me to know it's not good. The words are not the words regular Ukrainians speak with actually IN Ukraine. Those are the words that 2nd and 3rd generation Ukrainian immigrants from US and Canada use, and this author living in New York tries to pass them as authentic Ukrainian. Sure, you will be understood if you visit the country, but you will sound funny using those words.

Many errors, I don't not recommend it.
I have several Ukrainian friends and they tell me that there are many errors in the book.
