Dr. Uriel Weinreich's Modern English-Yiddish Yiddish-English
Dictionary has been praised by both scholars and Yiddish writers for
its completeness, its remarkable insight into the meanings of Yiddish
words and expressions, and its precise presentation of Yiddish grammar
and pronunciation. It is the work of one of this century's most admired
scholars of Yiddish language and culture, and took twenty years to
complete.
Comprehensive and reliable, the Modern English-Yiddish Yiddish-English
Dictionary is the standard reference guide to contemporary Yiddish, an
essential volume for the beginner and the expert alike.
