The Oxford Beginner's Japanese Dictionary is an innovative guide to learning Japanese. Designed specifically for English-speaking adult learners who are either learning from scratch or refreshing lost language skills, it offers an easy to use dictionary, extra help with vocabulary, and essential information on living and interacting in the Japanese-speaking world. The dictionary is exceptionally easy to use, because it moves away from the traditional dictionary layout. All main translations are preceded by an equals sign so that they are instantly identifiable, and all parts of the entry are spelt out in full, avoiding confusing jargon and abbreviations. Grammar and usage notes throughout the text warn of possible translation pitfalls, and thousands of example phrases show how the language is used in context. The 30-page Learning and Lifestyle kit gives key information on both the Japanese language, with a list of the words you really need to know, grammar help, and verb tables, and on life in the Japanese-speaking world: background information on lifestyle and culture, tips on etiquette and interaction in the language, and a phrasefinder for use when travelling. The Oxford Beginner's Japanese Dictionary is your essential companion to learning Japanese. Review: Perfect for learners - Contains Japanese to english as well as english to japanese sections. But you should have a good understanding of the “Kana scripts” as Romanji is not included. You can find usage notes on numerals and counting, verb, common phrases, etc. I've attached the contents page as reference for buyers. The bottomline is I would surely recommend. Review: Best book for beginners - It's the best dictionary for beginners who are just starting to learn Japanese. The hiragana and katakana chart is at the last which would have been at the beginning in my opinion. Rest everything is excellent. You can blindly go for this.

Perfect for learners
Contains Japanese to english as well as english to japanese sections. But you should have a good understanding of the “Kana scripts” as Romanji is not included.

Best book for beginners
It's the best dictionary for beginners who are just starting to learn Japanese. The hiragana and katakana chart is at the last which would have been at the beginning in my opinion. Rest everything is excellent. You can blindly go for this.

Good
I didn't find any photo of the product uploaded before purchasing it. So here are some photos fo future buyers. As for the product itself, it's good. But make sure to know your kana as romanjis aren't provided. Translations looks good so far. The coverage would take you half way through N3 I would say.

Utilissimo anche se un pò complicato da usare
Sto imparando il giapponese da zero e quindi faccio un pò fatica a capire in che ordine sono le parole. Ma è utile e aiuta a fissare meglio la scrittura di hiragana e katakana.

Well worth the money
The level of extra information in the book is outstanding, it has both Hiragana and Katakana versions of Japanese symbols to express words from English. I've just started learning the calligraphy of Japanese symbols and thought yeah I would like to know what I'm writing about and understand a little bit of the language. Hopefully I progress in the right direction and this book will aid my progression.

Terrific buy
As others have said, the entries are all in Kana and Kanji - absolutely essential for learning Nihon-go. It's smaller than I expected, which means it's portable in a small knapsack. Pagination is exceptional - very happy customer here!
