Great! Will continue to buy! – Oxford Russian Dictionary 2018 Review

Either I really haven't learned any Russian using this amazing dictionary (which is totally inconceivable!) everywhere from American language classrooms to the back rooms of Russian archives, then the poor reviewers here haven't really used it. I have loved and trusted this on/off line dictionary since I started learning Russian a decade ago. Why? Again, it has stood by me and been the most reliable around the world for language exams, archival translations, and everyday encounters. Better than Google Translate, obviously, even when I had a Google phone. Yes, it would be very very wonderful if your initial purchase grandfathered you into subsequent free updates, especially for a poor college student. And of course all dictionaries need to be taken into consideration with others (e.g MultiTran and WordReference and REAL RUSSIANS). But the cost of this dictionary has definitely been worth it for me up to this point. It's simply the electronic version of paper dictionaries most professors continue to use today (multiple editions of which they encourage students to buy) even if they won't admit it!
