About the book

"Since the Maldive Islands were opened to tourism in 1972, tourist booklets have given some account of the language, but no dictionary has hitherto appeared and this publication is the first specifically Maldivian-English dictionary." "The language has its own script, know as taana and written from right to left. Although a system of transliteration is employed in this dictionary, the headwords are also given in their taana form."--BOOK JACKET.
