"In most languages, the need for a reference book on verbs is obvious, but why a dictionary of Hebrew nouns and adjectives, when one could use any regular Hebrew dictionary?In Hebrew, as in other Semitic languages, there are relationships between nouns and adjectives, and between those and related verbs, that can make their acquisition easier, and in many cases help one understand, or even guess, their meaning.While in a language like English, new words are derived from existing words mostly by prefixation or suffixation, Hebrew can do the same, but has an additional powerful mechanism, which uses discontinuous patterns where sound units are arranged in a fixed order, including root consonants, identical vowels, identical affixes, and the same stress pattern.Such patterns often have associated base meanings, and once the pattern is identified, the word meaning is clear, as are associations with related words, with the same root or same pattern.This dictionary offers the easy way to identify the exact pattern, and suggests to the reader how to attribute these nouns.The dictionary is useful for every student and researcher, and is a must-read book in any academic library and libraries of schools that teach Hebrew" -- back cover
