Oxford English-Hebrew Hebrew-English Dictionary: English-Hebrew/Hebrew-English

This is the perfect dictionary for those studying modern Hebrew. Not only does it contain standard words and idiomatic expressions, but unlike many competitive dictionaries, it is legible! I use this several times a day and have had no difficulty in finding the appropriate translations. I AM NOT A HEBREW SPEAKER - so this has been a great boon to me in my study of the language.

It was supposed to be second hand but look brand new. Excllent service and product.

Could be clearer (eg verb forms, prepositions etc) but does the job.

This is a very easy to use little dictionary & I am sure I will find it a useful tool fortranslating from the ivrith(hebrew)on Facebook!I will certainly recommend it to my friends.

I find this dictionary a good one just like the description. I use it whenever I encounter a new word or when I need to translate whats on my mind to a Hebrew.

Not a bad little dictionary. 18cm by 13cm. The English print is good enough to read without glasses for those who use a 150 magnification lens. The Hebrew is much smaller and though big enough to read with glasses the niqudr or vowel sounds (dots, dashes beneath and over the letters) are not. Fortunately I have a hand held magnifying glass which works well. If you are using this dictionary for Biblical purposes you will need to double check words online as some ancient Hebrew words differ to the modern, which is of course to be expected. One other small inconvenience is that the letter "Shin" has no dots over it's top so you can not know whether it is pronounced with an "sh" or "s" sound. You will have to check other sources to verify. All that said, it's still, in my opinion, worth getting.

Excellent, finally a dictionary just as I want. If you can read and pronounce the nikud then this is the one for you.

Does what it’s supposed to do

Dizionario molto utile e pratico sia per chi ha appena iniziato a studiare ebraico moderno, sia per chi è di grado già un po' più avanzato. Pertanto lo consiglio, anche per il rapporto qualità/prezzo.

I like its size. It makes it easy to carry around and it has enough words in it so I can find what I need. Easy to navigate throught the book even if I am a beginner student at the language. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and I use it a lot

This dictionary fulfills what it is supposed to. I haven't tried any other dictionaries, but so for I have found all the words and genders I needed.

I am an English speaker and have used the Oxford EN/HE dictionary extensively in both "directions" over the years. I have found it extremely useful. It holds a very comprehensive collection of words and expressions, covering all areas of modern Hebrew from the elevated language found in Ha'Aretz and Amos Oz to the everyday language heard on the street. All Hebrew is written with nikud (vowels), which is essential for correct pronunciation. Synonyms are usually given to distinguish among multiple translations. Phrases are listed under their key words, making them easy to find. Finally, Hebrew words are listed under all their currently used spellings (usually, with & without the extra vavs and yuds given to replace vowels).This dictionary looks even better in comparison with its absolutely pitiful competition. Every other dictionary I have seen in this size has been severely lacking.

Oxford English-Hebrew Hebrew-English Dictionary is very good & reasonable price
