“I would definitely choose the Swedish Practical Dictionary: Swedish-English/English-Swedish over more popular, thinner dictionaries. It is pocket-sized and contains every word you might need as a businessperson or student, and more than you would need as an occasional tourist. The high quality of the entry selection can be credited to the author, Harald Hille, who has 25 years of experience as a translator for the United Nations.”—Tess Whitty, American Translators Association Chronicle

Swedish is an official language of the European Union, the Nordic Council, and Finland. This pocket-size practical dictionary includes:

  • over 28,000 entries of essential Swedish vocabulary
  • useful grammar notes and possible variants
  • stressed vowels marked for ease of pronunciation
  • a general pronunciation guide
