Our teacher warned us against Langenscheidt when I was studying for my
English degree, seriously. Try Pons-Collin's (in Germany by Klett
Verlag) or Cassell's (both British English); or Webster's (the
standard tome for U.S. English). Of course, you will remember the the
Oxford Reader's Dictionary from school (maybe the best for British
English). I used to have both the Webster's and the Oxford Reader's
unabridged (complete) versions, but lost them during my moves across
continents and moving houses in three countries etc.
I'm a Commercial and Industrial Translator (staatl. gepruefter
Wirtschaftsuebersetzer), Hamburg Chamber of Commerce. Short of a
university degree, this is the highest degree for translators in
Germany. I carry a seal (a round stamp) and can make official
translations.
> Thanks for these links.
Wellcome. The site www.yourdictionary.com has yet to fail to provide
me with an online dictionary for any langauge I was searching for.
Search for courses on Kisuaheli, and it's there. ;-)
