Rating: - Non Fiction
Berlitz Danish-English Pocket Dictionary by the Berlitz Publishing Company is a handy little reference guide when you need to look up a word in Danish and find its English equivalent, and it is not obvious at a glance on the internet.

(Example: for the word "miss" they give you only two translations, for using with e.g. "Miss ... Read More
