Kurdish-English dictionary (Ferhenga Kurmanci-Inglizi): English 2002

Michael L. Chyet is cataloger of Middle Eastern languages at the library of Congress. Formerly he was senior editor of the Kurdish service of the Voice of America and professor of Kurdish at the University of Paris and at the Washington Kurdish Institute. This is not an ordinary dictionary. It is extraordinary. It is the first and only comprehensive sumup of two centuries of Western and Middle Eastern scholarship on the Kurmanji dialect of Kurdish, spoken by the majority of Kurds, and one of the most repressed languages of the world.
