I bought this dictionary as a gift, choosing this one because of it's "pocket" size feature and being quite cheap.After receiving it, I was very surprised at how simplistic this book is, and is quite big for being "pocket size". I have a different brand of pocket dictionary of another foreign language that is quite small and use very religiously. This Tagalog one pales in comparison to what I used and what I was expecting.There are no pronuciation explanations, as I guess they assume you know how to pronounce the words already. But then again, reading Tagalog is pretty straightfoward, as opposed to trying to read, say, Chinese or Russian, where the characters are totally different. But you wouldn't even know where to accent the syllables either...A total for 88 pages with 44 pages devoted to each Tagalog - English, and English - Tagalog. I guess you get what you pay for. And I'm not paying this much for this book. I'm returning this one!
I am learning Tagalog for the first time and this pocket dictionary was recommended to me by my teacher. So far, it has been great. Very easy to use and true to the language. Lightweight and very helpful.
nice conversational book for those visiting Manila perhaps. Not enough detail to get you into the 'back country' either safely or without appearing ridiculous to the native population I am afraid. But NOT BAD for beginners if you are in a friendly environment during your stay.
Tagalog pocket dictionary for my Filipino relative going to the Philippines. It is a great way for people to learn Tagalog words and for people to look up words. It is easy to read and easy to look up words you are looking for. It goes from English to Tagalog and vice versa. I would recommend this dictionary by Renato Perdon. I hope I can pick up a few words to use in my vocabulary.
This is a great dictionary, but 3,000 words isn't really a lot. Most standard dictionaries have more than 20,000 words. I understand its a "pocket" dictionary, but when it's downloadable to your tablet, it could be expanded.
Bought this as a gift for a friend and she loved it. It's small and pocket-sized, which is very great for travel. You're not going to learn Tagalog from this book, but it's great for beginners. I'm not fluent in Tagalog by all means, but it was great to review some things. Great buy!
I many dictionaries guides to Tagalog. BUT this is the one that goes with me on my person always when I am in the Philippines. This also the one the Filipinos stock in their bookstores which should tell you something.
This is a very good pocket dictionary for a new language learner or a young language learner as it has simple definitions that can be easily remembered. I like the fact that it has an English to Tagalog part and a Tagalog to English part.
