University of Utah Press,U.S. Lacandon Maya-Spanish-English Dictionary
Book SynopsisAround 1700 AD the Lacandon Maya took refuge in the forest lowlands of Chiapas, Mexico, and in western Petén, Guatemala. They were never conquered by the Spanish and thus maintained many of their cultural practices well into the twentieth century. Their language belongs to the Yucatecan branch of the Maya language, a branch that is believed to have begun to diversify at least one thousand years ago. Today the Lancandon are split into northern and southern linguistic groups. This dictionary focuses on the southern Lacandon of Lacanjá.Following the same trilingual format as Hofling’s Mopan Maya-Spanish-English Dictionary, this reference contains pronunciation and grammatical information. It is a hybrid of a root dictionary and one with words in alphabetical order; words can be looked up in these two different ways, making it easy to use for both native and nonnative speakers. It accommodates Spanish speakers who wish to learn Lacandon and in the future is likely to be helpful to Lacandon- speaking children, who increasingly use Spanish outside the home, while preserving a record of this indigenous language.Trade Review"The grammatical sketch is particularly valuable. No previous publications can compare with the fieldwork and information that Hofling has assembled, and the analysis that he has done. It will be useful, not only to Mayan linguistics, but to linguists in general. It is likewise invaluable to those who study Mayan epigraphy." —Martha J. Macri, Yocha Dehe Chair in California Indian Studies, Department of Native American Studies, University of California, Davis.

Cambridge University Press Persian Vocabulary
Book SynopsisThis work, a companion to Professor Lambton's Persian Grammar (also available in a Students' edition), is intended mainly for the student of contemporary Persian. It will, however, also be a useful handbook for those who wish to read classical Persian literature. The Persian-English and English-Persian sections contain a wide range of the more common words and phrases.Trade Review'This volume … meets a need much felt by those who, after completing the grammatical study of the language, wish to tackle both the easier literary texts and to read the daily papers, and have need of a more convenient and more handy volume than those of the great dictionaries of Haim and the old but none the less useful one of Steingass.' East and West'This vocabulary, though originally designed as a companion volume to Dr Lambton' Persian Grammar, is in fact an independent work. Its Persian-English and English-Persian sections are complementary and represent a practical, concise record of modern Persian vocabulary such as can be found nowhere else at the present time.'
