Oxford Albanian-English Dictionary - Hardcover

This bilingual dictionary of Albanian should be a useful reference for all those concerned with modern Albanian, whether students, scholars, translators or in professional contexts. It features 75,000 entries covering idioms and scientific definitions in addition to modern Albanian. It also includes terms for birds, flowers, fish, and grasses with their scientific definitions, as well as encyclopedic information where necessary to explain words in their Albanian contexts. Pronunciation guidance is provided and illustrative examples show words in use. A user's guide introduces Albanian grammar - irregular stem forms are listed in their proper alphabetical position, and reverse-alphabetical lists of suffixes permit readers to work out puzzling words by working from back to front.

Professor Leonard Newmark is currently Professor Emeritus at the University of California, and Research Linguist at the Centre for Research in Language.
