Tuttle Concise Japanese Dictionary cover

Every serious student of Japanese needs a reliable and user-friendly dictionary in their collection.

Tuttle Concise Japanese Dictionary, now with 30% more content, is a thoroughly updated dictionary designed for students and business people who are living in Japan and using the Japanese language on a daily basis. Its most significant advantage is that it contains recent idiomatic expressions and slang which have become popular in the past several years and which are not found in other competing dictionaries.

The dictionary has been thoroughly updated through the addition of modern vocabulary relating to computers, mobile phones, social media and the Internet.

Other special features that set this dictionary apart include:

  • Over 25,000 words and expressions including idioms and slang.
  • User-friendly layout with main entries in color.
  • Complete Japanese-English, and English-Japanese sections.
  • Romanized forms and the Japanese script are given for all Japanese words.
  • A guide to pronunciation helps the user to pronounce Japanese words correctly.
  • Different senses of each word are distinguished by multiple definitions.

"It's a nice dictionary to hold. It's flexible as if you've had it for years, but it's also solid, and crisp, and new - and it's the perfect size for taking to classes or popping in your bag. It also is nicely presented and more thorough than the other smaller dictionaries I had used previously." --Lindsay Does Language blog
