Just bought the best Indonesian – English dictionary by Alan M. Stevens and A. Ed. Schmiggall-Tellings. Originally, it is published by Ohio University Press and in Indonesia, it is published by Mizan, for sale in Indonesia only. The price is Rp. 196.000,-, not sure with the price of the one published by Ohio University Press.
The dictionary titled ‘A Comprehensive Indonesian-English Dictionary’ is really very comprehensive, as the result of documentation and research for twenty years. No kidding, twenty years. It will surely replace my Indonesian-English dictionary by John M. Echols and Hassan Shadily.
Any translators, libraries, linguists, students of English should have the dictionary.
For your information, if you go to bookstores or even if you go to Mizan representative in Jakarta, you won’t find the dictionary now. It will be available in two weeks. I have mine sent directly from Mizan, Bandung. Cannot wait. :)
