I'd appreciate it if anyone could point me in the direction of a good Catalan dictionary, be it online or hard copy and from Catalan-English/English-Catalan or Catalan-Spanish/Spanish-Catalan. Monolingual dictionaries are also welcome.
Thanks in advance. Edited by patuco on 06 November 2010 at 1:03am 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Fortunately, two of the best monolingual dictionaries are available online.

I have the Oxford Catalan-English Dictionary, which is very good.

I have a two-way English Catalan-English Pocket Larousse which is handy and quite good. And I also have the two dicionaris from the Enciclopèdia Catalana, one in each direction with each around 30.000 headwords, and I use those as supplement to the Larousse thing. So including the Oxford dictionary it seems that Catalan is reasonable well taken care of by the dictionary publishers.
On the internet there is first and foremost the net version of the Enciclopèdia Catalana. Edited by Iversen on 07 November 2010 at 10:44pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Thanks for the responses so far. I'm still undecided on which hard copy to buy. It would be convenient to get one from Amazon, but I might just wait until I'm next in Barcelona and get a Spanish-Catalan version.
