learn_russianHi guys,
I'm looking to purchase the only Russian-English dictionary I'll need, so to speak.
I've had too many terms that I couldn't translate through online dictionaries or through my little paperback ones.
It looks to me like the ones all the experts like are either the Oxford hardcover or the "Smirnitsky" dictionary (which seems to have countless editions over the last 50 years).
I really don't want to have to buy several and/or hold on to the lacking little ones I have. Do any of you guys know which one will be the most thorough? I don't care much about the pronunciations, but stress is a nice thing to have shown.
Thanks in advance!
Sorry if this answer is somewhere obvious but I couldn't find it.
