 A very good dictionary Oct 12, 2007
I really like this dictionary because unlike other dictionaries out there, it doesn't just give you the definition, it gives you the word in the context of sentences. It also provides you with both Hmong and English definitions, so it is useful to both Hmong and non-Hmong. The only problem is that it is a one way dictionary; you can only look up Hmong words.
 only contains Hmong -> English, no English -> Hmong ! Aug 25, 2007
I bought this book because I'm learning Hmong, but surprisingly, this dictionary contains Hmong:English translations only, no English:Hmong. I've never seen half a dictionary before! The book's (free) website does provide such functionality, nevertheless, I purchased this book because I wish to have a printed reference and consequently I was quite disappointed. The author did, however, provide useful example sentences for each word, plus an introduction which provides basic notes on the language including differences between the white and green Hmong dialects. I'll generously give it 4 stars because what information is does provide seems quite complete, however it is only half a dictionary! I encourage the author to come out with a second volume to provide the missing, important English:Hmong indexing.
