Product Description

Spoken primarily in eastern New Guinea and nearby islands, the New Guinea Pidgin language-also called Neo-Melanesian-is one of the most important forms of Pidgin in use today. It contains several dialects, and many words are specific to certain regions; this dictionary collects all universally used vocabulary, and is an especially valuable tool for those first learning the language. The reader can rest assured that the words contained within will be understood by all speakers of Neo-Melanesian, regardless of individual dialect.

4.0 out of 5 stars It doesnt reverse the translation from English to Pidgin, Dec 25 2007

By R. Walker - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Neo Melanesian Eng Dict New Guinea Pidgin Eng Language (Paperback)

I am about to go to PNG and wanted a dictionary with me to translate Pidgin and help learn the language. The only complaint is that it doesnt reverse the translation from English to Pidgin. It seems very comprehensive and has been very useful so far in initial translations. I havent yet used it in the field!
