I bought this book along with "Teach Yourself Swahili" which incidentally is excellent. This dictionary however is too concise to be of much use as a dictionary, though as a phrase book for travellers it would be ideal. This author also has a much more comprehensive dictionary which I bought later as an aid to my learning.
