Best of the Russian minidictionaries - This is a very handy portable reference book. It is easy to use because each page is well laid out and it uses a font that is pleasant to look at (unlike the Oxford minidictionary) - this is important, as it makes a difference to how easy it is to find a word and explore it s possible uses in different contexts. I have found that the entries give clear, useful examples of the different uses of each word.
