Perfect for the student

This is more than a dictionary. This book contains all of the answers to the common grammatical questions concerning usage, declension, aspect and conjugation for each Russian entry. The English section contains full pages for broader topics, like colours, names and how to express possesion. I highly recommend this dictionary for the first or second year student.

Accessible dictionary for beginnging students of Russian

This dictionary has helped me get through the first few semester of Elementary Russian. It's not the usual scaled-down version of a larger dictionary because the editors kept in mind to include useful phrases that any beginning student of Russian would need to look up, and when you look up a word, it just doesn't give a list of ten possible translations, but it makes sure that you pick the one closest to your intended meaning.
