About the item Original title: Íslensk-Ensk vasaorðabók / Sævar Hilbertsson Title in English: Icelandic-English Pocket Dictionary / Sævar Hilbertsson Description: The book is 1th edition of the perfectly universal dictionary between modern Icelandic and English languages. The dictionary has been developed by Sævar Hilbertsson. The pocket-size dictionary offers up-to-date vocabulary for everyday life and travel. The ideal companion for all Iceland travelers - compact, reliable, easy to read. With 35,000 headwords (+ several thousand synonyms), the book is a medium-sized dictionary. The vocabulary is based on the contemporary spoken Icelandic and its aim is to give as much information as possible in the restricted space available. As Icelandic has a rich morphology, the inflections of the headwords are shown by notes. The gender of all Icelandic nouns is stated, and English words are supplied in brackets to make clear the meaning of the Icelandic glosses, whenever this could be done without undue waste of space. Verbs and nouns are the only parts of speech regularly indicated, but the others are shown when confusion seemed at all possible. For the convenience of users irregular plurals are given within the text and there is a list of irregular verbs at the end of the book. The dictionary target groups are firstly English speaking people who need to look up words in Icelandic, secondly, translators between English and Icelandic. Thirdly, learners and teachers of Icelandic in the English speaking countries, and learners and teachers of English in Iceland.
