A Comprehensive Indonesian-English Dictionary

Stevens (linguistics, Queens College, City U. of New York) is the author of numerous articles on the Indonesian lexicon and on phonology; the late Schmidgall-Tellings was a freelance translator and author of numerous books and articles on the Indonesian language. Their reference work is based on some two decades of research and documentation, drawing on the assistance of translators and interpreters in Indonesia, the U.S., Australia, and Europe, and resulting in the most authoritative resource on the Indonesian language today. The text is a compilation of all the roots, words, phrases, proverbs, idioms, compounds, and derivatives the authors found in written and spoken Indonesian, including Dutch words and phrases appearing in Indonesian legal documents. This second edition contains hundreds of new entries and an accompanying CD-ROM. Annotation c2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
