Universal German-English Dictionary [German]

I've always loved their dictionaries. Amazing quality. HOWEVER, if I were to criticize, it would be that they made the overall shape too 'cubish' -great for sitting on a desk, but HORRIBLE for one's pocket. Cute as hell, though. Just make note of the proportions before you buy.

Langenscheidt Universal Dictionary German is very easy to use, has the right size(fits into my pocket) and I can switch from English/German to German/English very fast.

This mini dictionary is only slightly larger than a box of cigarettes. Its soft plastic cover is extremely pliable and withstands the challenges of frequent pocket wear very well. The same is true for the binding. Where other pocket dictionaries couldn't take the abuse of being worn in front or back pockets for extended periods of time, this little beauty holds up perfectly well, just like its previous edition. While the 35,000 references provided in this dictionary will not be sufficient as a foundation for a professional translator or interpreter, this travel companion is perfect for business trips as well as leisurely vacations.

This book covers all the basic vocabulary of both languages, English and German - and this is much more people usually use to communicate. Thus it helps you in almost every everyday situation and is also good for quick reference when reading books. Due to it's size it can be transported easily and taken everywhere. Because it combines both translation directions, it can be used in order to understand others and to express oneself.If you need more translation power, phrases, collocations etc., you will need a bigger one, but this here is good for a start, and even for a little more.

This book is a very cool book it is helpful and it is easy to understand.
