This general dictionary is primarily for students of Russian in universities and schools whose native language is English. It contains about 70,000 entries, and is based on collation of the best existing Russian-English dictionaries with fundamental dictionaries of Russian (including the authoritative dictionaries prepared by the USSR Academy of Sciences, and pre-1917 works). Russian and Soviet literature and the Soviet Press have been drawn upon, and importance has been attached to including colloquial vocabulary and idiom and general scientific and technological terminology. Entries include illustrative phraseology and indications of principal grammatical features. There is an appendix of the most commonly used standard abbreviations.
