RUPA ENGLISH-HINDI POCKET DICTIONARY

The Rupa English Hindi
Dictionary includes features not found in most Indian bilingual dictionaries.
At present it contains more than 20, 000 headwords and almost twice as many
derivations, phrasal verbs and idioms. All translations have been given in simple
Hindi keeping in view the diverse needs of English language learners in
India. Instead of simple Hindi equivalents, descriptive meanings have been
given for most words. Standard pronunciations of all headwords and wherever
necessary, of their derivations have been provided in easy to decipher
Devnagri phonetic alphabet. Combination forms (with prefixes and suffixes)
have been fully treated. Words from science and technology have been given
extensive coverage. Many words have acquired new or additional connotations
in Indian English. Such connotations have been taken note of and given along
with the original meaning or translations of words.
