Collins Latin Concise Dictionary (Collins Language)

The proof of the pudding...
is in the eating; that of a dictionary in its use. Since my copy of this one arrived only about a week ago, I haven't yet had time to put it fully to the test, but so far...very good. The full declension and conjugation tables and explanations at the end (not to mention the "Quick Reference Grammar" at the beginning) are precisely why I chose this dictionary over the alternatives.My only complaints, and minor ones at that, are the cover color (what were they thinking?) and the print direction of the grammar section at the end (across the page lengthwise, making it a little difficult to use).January 20, 2008 addendum:Nearly a month of usage has only confirmed the rightness of my choice. If you're looking for a good, compact Latin-English/English-Latin dictionary with full grammar tables and other supplementary sections, LOOK NO FURTHER!

Clear type, straightforward
I got this for my mother, and we both agree that the nice white pages and good print is a real plus for our eyes. I studied Latin for several years, and I have to say that this dictionary is excellent. It goes well beyond being just a word list, but it doesn't get muddled in being overly academic, either. It also includes some nice review pages, etc.If you, like my mom, just want a quick resource as a reader's companion, this dictionary is perfect. If you are studying Latin I think you will find it to be a joy to use and browse, although you may also want something a little more academic (with, say, more etymological information) as you advance in your studies.

Great used dictionary, great seller.
Collins makes a great Latin dictionary. The seller described it as very good and I wasn't at all disappointed. The pages are clean, there is no writing.

Must buy for Latin courses
This guide includes both a Latin to English and English to Latin section. Most significantly, there are expansive, helpful grammar charts, paradigms, and tips that make declining and conjugating in Latin much easier. Purchased for my college Latin courses and certainly an essential, useful tool.

It is very easy to understand and work with
It is very easy to understand and work with, very helpful index. I use it myself and with my daughter's homeschool program, I want her to have an understanding of Latin before she goes into other languages and this little dictionary is a treasure.

Must-Have for Latin Students at Any Level!
This is by far my favorite Latin dictionary reference. I bought it for school and will be keeping it on my bookshelf. Not only does it have Latin-to-English and English-to-Latin but it also has grammar references throughout it. It's definitely a must-have for any Latin students

Helpful book!
Until there is an easy way to look up latin words online, this is going to be SO helpful. I love the layout with different verb endings. This book makes learning latin a much more pleasant experience for me.

Latin Dictionary
After using the grammar section in a pocket Latin dictionary for longer than I care to remember, the details available in this are a considerable improvement. Well worth having.
