This revised and completely reset edition of the Oxford Dictionary of Modern Greek is the essential reference for both English- and Greek-speaking students, teachers, and translators. With 67,000 words and phrases, and some 82,000 translations, it covers the most up-to-date vocabulary, including idioms, and is illustrated throughout with example phrases in each language showing words in use. The dictionary has moved over from the previous spelling system of the Greek language to the monotonic system, now the most widely used in Greece. In addition to information on style and usage, there are also appendices listing the principal parts of Greek verbs, and place and personal names. This book is intended for translators, language students, teachers, as well as those wanting a general reference.

Review:

"This dictionary scores outstandingly well in comparison with others of its size." --Margaret Alexion, Times Literary Supplement "The dictionary is clearly printed and well laid out on good quality paper. Its flexicover will stand most wear. This is an excellent piece of lexicography and will serve well in any reference collection, especially at its almost ridiculously cheap price."--Reference Reviews "This dictionary scores outstandingly well in comparison with others of its size." --Margaret Alexion, Times Literary Supplement "The dictionary is clearly printed and well laid out on good quality paper.
