Description

"The Tuttle Concise Balinese Dictionary" is the only available bidirectional Balinese dictionary on the market. The addition of Indonesian equivalents in all of the entries will enable speakers of that language to make use of this revolutionary dictionary also, as well as providing valuable comparative insights to linguistics. Balinese words are presented in both romanised and Balinese script forms, based on the existing traditional script known as hanacara, which is still widely in use in Bali. Information on parts of speech for headwords is given along with useful meanings, common collocations, idiomatic expressions and sample sentences in this title.
