Description

Finally, here is the dictionary that learners have been waiting for: one that specifically answers the needs of English-speakers who are studying Korean.

There are over 11,000 headwords included (both Korean and English), and over 5,600 example sentences-one for every Korean headword.

Reviews

"A great feature of this dictionary is the appendix of commonly used hanja (Chinese characters) in Korean. If you know some Chinese or Japanese, this is an excellent way to identify loan words in Korean you can more easily remember by associating them with the original character." --Goodreads
