English-Syriac Dictionary - Assur-ahhe-iddina - 09-11-2010

Does anyone have any insight in regard to the "Bukhro" English-Syriac Dictionary completed by Rev. Zeki Zitoun? I was considering purchasing the dictionary but I wasn't sure if it is worth it or not.

I have no clue, but it seems like it is in the western dialect (Syriac Orthodox) based on the title, so many words will be different than surit d'madinkha.

No clue here either. You can get a brief look at the book at 1:30 - 2:10 in this video:

Hi Assur-ahhe-iddina. I have the book, lucky enough to get it as a gift from Khuroyo Zeitoun who is a relative. The book is very large, and heavy. I'm surprised at the amount of English words, very thorough. So if you're dedicated to learning Syriac I guess I would say it's a good resource.
