This dictionary has been specially designed for foreigners working or traveling in Indonesia. It is equally useful for Indonesians who live abroad or in an English-speaking environment. No knowledge of Indonesian grammar or word formation is necessary to use this helpful dictionary--simply look up the word as you hear or read it, and you'll quickly find it's meaning. This is a revolutionary feature that most other Indonesian dictionaries are lacking.
Special features of this Indonesian dictionary include:
- Covers the 15,000 most common Indonesian and English words.
- A useful pronunciation guide.
- A small, compact size makes it portable and lightweight.
- Both Indonesian-English and English-Indonesian sections.
- Special emphasis is given to words vital in daily use, important in business and cultural settings, and useful to travelers.
- The entries in both sections contain common idioms and expressions, as well as up-to-date IT and Internet vocabulary.
There are no other authoritative pocket dictionaries of Indonesian. The Oxford Starter's Indonesian-English Dictionary and the Tuttle Concise Indonesian Dictionary are larger dictionaries with more entries, but these are aimed at students rather than general users.
