... No other word for it. This dictionary is superb on all fronts. The content is excellent, and it's a handsome publication as well. Clear to read, this book is just what is needed by those who are either familiar with - or newcomers to - the magnificent Welsh language.
Diolch yn fawr!

I regularly have to translate English into Welsh as part of my work and as a person who has learned (and is still learning) Welsh this has proved to be invaluable, as it offers every possible permutation of the use of a word. Worth every penny.

No office in Wales is complete without this! Although it is available online now! It is good in giving translations o not just words but sentences in which words are used. Really good dictionary that must have been a mammoth task to create.

Great dictionary, though I've spotted a few errors in the past (haven't checked this edition yet mind), and it's a shame it's only English-Welsh.
