Find Best Price at Amazon"One of the things I hated when younger and studying Russian was the constant need to look up words in a dictionary but e-readers make looking up words so easy that I now find myself looking up more English words when reading, for a variety of reasons (not to miss a possibly subtle point by a great author, to see the etymology of a word, etc.). And as even the negative reviews have mentioned, if a word is not found using the integrated look up - the reason I and probably most others purchased it - words can still be found by manually searching."
"I find that this works quite well with my Kindle and my Android and iOS Kindle apps."
"I'm almost tempted to give it a 5 because it is so much better than the one that came with my kindle."
"I'm halfway through reading the first Harry Potter book in French, and this dictionary has found all but a handful of words."
"As many of us know, the fun of reading can disappear rather quickly when you're forced to put down the book and look up a word in the dictionary every two or three minutes. This version of the dictionary doesn't do a good job with words preceded by "d'" and "l'" --- but even then, you just press "Home" to put down the book, go into the French-English dictionary, and type the word you're looking for."
"I own a Basic Kindle and because this book is coded as being in English, it is not selectable as being a default French dictionary."
"A mistake."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Zubakhin's books are awesome! I've read some bad reviews... some people have criticized the books for not "speaking" the way "real Russians" do and this is true, the books have many instances of both awkward Russian and English phrases. (And also those by Tatiana Mikhaylova) I've read both the First and Second Readers and they've done more for improving my fluency that any others."
"Eventually the disparate elements come together and it's a satisfying read - the sort of thing you might have read in a public library book around the age of ten. In contrast, Russian language "beginners' books" are largely rubbish, filled with useless vocabulary taken from an age when people lived in thatched huts and ploughed fields with oxen, and full of that uniquely Russian and uniquely irritating "malchik-spalchik" rubbish that does everyone (including Russian children learning to read) a complete disservice."
"I can't praise this book enough : It is magnificent, combining an entertaining story line with excellent, lively, naturally colloquial language which, with its parallel Russian-English format , allows advanced beginners and intermediate learners alike to quickly and painlessly take giant steps to improve their practical knowledge of Russian ."
"I have found these graded readers to be an excellent help in learning the Russian language."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I see a lot of reviews that say something like, "All I had to do is change it in "settings" to my default dictionary"... After I downloaded the Spanish dictionary, it set itself up as the default Spanish dictionary, and left the default English dictionary in place."
"You hook your kindle into you computer, copy all the Spanish books on it to your "Library", delete them from your Kindle, then edit the metadata to change the language tag to English."
"PROS: The dictionary's good points include: (1) it recognizes most words that I didn't know; (2) it recognizes inflected forms of verbs and usually directs the user to the correct infinitive (Sometimes, though, the dictionary "thinks" that the word meant is a verb when perhaps the word is an adjective or noun spelled the same way as some verb form. ); (3) The Kindle recognizes that some books are in Spanish and defaults to this dictionary (on at least three books with which I have tried this dictionary), while the pre-installed English dictionary remains the default when I am reading English books."
"Be careful with this one - It is a great dictionary but it is only Spanish to English and not back and forth as expected."
"What I end up doing is guessing at what the verb or base word might be, looking up that word and getting an answer."
"On my Kindle Keyboard, the search function lists the words and so if I am not sure of the spelling, then it lists the Spanish words near the word I search for, and then I can correct for spelling. On the Kindle Keyboard, the search option takes me to the part of the dictionary close to the word I searched for, so at least I am near what I am looking for if I don't know the spelling. I assumed that if I searched for an English word, that search function would take me to the location of that word in the book just like it does for a novel."
