Dear colleagues,

I am considering taking the newly available Swedish to English ATA certification exam. The exam is open-book, but no computers or electronic resources are allowed. Currently, the only hard copy dictionaries I own are Prismas Abridged English-Swedish and Swedish-English Dictionary, and Norstedts Amerikanska Fickordbok.

Dear colleagues,

I am considering taking the newly available Swedish to English ATA certification exam. The exam is open-book, but no computers or electronic resources are allowed. Currently, the only hard copy dictionaries I own are Prismas Abridged English-Swedish and Swedish-English Dictionary, and Norstedts Amerikanska Fickordbok. Can anyone suggest any other high-quality, thorough Swedish to English dictionaries that are available in hard copy, either general or specialized (legal, medical, finance)?

I browsed the forum and gather that Gullberg's Svensk-Engelsk Fackordbok is well-rated, but it is not readily available to US buyers online.

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Best wishes,
Tatiana

I have copies of Engströms and Gullberg in hardback.
All of them are available for use in the Wordfinder program and perhaps as hardback too.

No hardbacks with Wordfinder, but a good list nonetheless Feb 3, 2013

Thanks for your response, George. I checked Wordfinder and it appears they don't offer anything in hardback, but I may be able to get my hands on Gullberg and Engströms through a secondhand purchase. I wish Bokus shipped to the US!!

Gullberg Feb 3, 2013

I bought Gullberg's hardback from Wordfinder (my favourite and much-used program) together with the digital version. Now it's two volumes compared with my old Gullberg weighing nearly 2½ kg, the second revised edition including a supplement, about 1977.

I can send you this if you are willing to pay the postage. Ie, no charge for the book itself.
My old Gullberg has been lying unused for ages.
