I intend to keep updating this list with reader input. I’m using Amazon’s “Look inside!” function as much as possible, but it’s not always available. See the end of this postif you have a dictionary that isn’t on this list. If you have some of this info about one of the dictionaries I have listed here, or another dictionary you own, send me an email.

I went to two large bookstores (The enormous Half Price Books and the equally enormous Barnes & Noble in Dallas) and wrote down the names of pretty-much every dictionary they had in every language they carried, and also noted whether they included pronunciation information (and if so, whether it was IPA, some formal system (pinyin, romaji), some random system they invented, or some terrible English approximation ). This is some early bookstore research for a bunch of foreign language dictionary reviews.
