Quoting alameda:

I had one of those little yellow Turkish/English dictionaries, but it falls apart pretty easily. It would be nice to have a little electronic dictionary for Turkish/English. Something that is small enough to fit in a pocket or purse.

Does anyone have information on these?

Thanks



I fixed my little yellow dictionary with duct tape.

I'd suggest you the dictionaries of Poly. I use it, and it's wonderful.

I have a small electronic one too, but I got it for free next to a turkish course book, so I suppose its not of such good quality. Anyway, everybody is different but if you ask me, nothing better than a normal paper dictionary. On the other hand, there are new ones that have the ability to play wordgames/quizzes on, so in that case when youre bored in the train or anywehre it would be really practical! Also saw one that has an mp3 player so if you dont already have one

Good luck finding one.

Exactly stated my thought, or rather my feeling for dictionaries, deli kızın! And why don't we show each other our dictionaries? You must see my dictionary collection;
I sometimes caress them tendernessly! lol

No, I am serious! And I do appreciate and greet your approach to dictionaries. Thinking now what I would do in place of you? Hmm.. Would I leave a pair of my shoes? Or something else? I know I would, for the sake of dictionaries I would leave even myself. lol

POLY Lingua E-8100 turkish-english talking dictionary

I will continue to make the advertisement of my dictionary that I have been using for nearly 3 years without any problem, ((just lately I cannot use because I have to change its small battery)

What I like with it is that it talks! It says aloud both the english and turkish words, so I think it's a wonderful way to hear how they're pronounced. And there's nearly every word in it, what I like with it is we can find the idioms, very daily words too. It really makes addiction.
It's 177 YTL. A bit more expensive than some other, but really buy a really good one, and use it for years with 100% satisfaction.

Oh lalaaa!!

You two talk like my grandmother

Ok, but when we want to carry a good dictionary with us, then we have to take a really big, thick one, and it's very very heaviy. On the other hand, these electronic things can store tons of words, and I always take them with me, in my handbag, furthermore they can talk, we can hear how a word is pronounced.

I've just checked your recommended dictionary mltm, it looks really good, but unfortunately it's not delivered outside Turkey, so till I come there I guess I'll have to settle with mine...

There should be some pretty good PDA stuff as well. Well, for those who have one anyway, I can't talk from experience

I have the same dictionary as Ayla Ectaco's Language Teacher eng-tur ET 200D. it needs three small batteries
Its a very good one I think. But panta-rei seems to have one that contains poems..that one might be better.

Thank you Ayla,
