Electronic Dictionaries

[angie-in-japan.livejournal.com]

Hello everyone,

Can you recommend a good electronic Russian/English dictionary? I am only a lower-intermediate student right now but I'd like a model with enough vocabulary to help me grow in the next few years. Are there any particular models that students in Russian language programs are using now?

Thank you for your help!

acronyms + prep

в США, does it chang in prep?
i think it would be в США because the ending changes, but the first letters still stay the same...

спасибо большое! !

edit: okay so в США it is! another question:

when describing American cuisine (which some may say is non-existant. Mickey D's?) would you use Американская кухня as i have in my sentences below?

edit after corrections:
В России матрёшки дешевле, чем у нас. Но в США русская кухня дороже, чем в России. Американская кухня хуже русской кухни, потому что русская кухня вкуснее американской кухни, но американцы толще русских. Почему?

once again, спасибо большое! !
