A NEW REVERSE ENGLISH DICTIONARY Martin Lehnert IS Reverse Dictionar of Present- Day En lish (VEB Verlag Enzyklopa ie, Leipzig, 1971 contains about 110,000 words and phrases, compiled from half a million Eng­lish words according to their importance and up-to-dateness. (He lists 27 dictionaries in the section II Most Important Works Consulted' ·, but none of these are unabridged.) The book is difficult to locate in American bookstores, but it can be ordered from Germany by Adler I s Foreign Books (162 Fifth Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10010) for $21 (with a 10per cent discount usually given) . This book fills a gap between Walker I s Rhyming Dictionary of the English Lan\uage and the massive Normal and Reverse Eng­lish Word List ased on Webster's Unabridged. Even owners of the latter may want to consider obtaining Lehnert, for it con­tains many words not in Webster I s Second. I checked a sample of 100 words in Lehnert (the top word in the second column on every fifth page from 20 through 515), fi,nding that 28 were not given in the Webster Unabridged list (however, four were pres­ent in variant form: duelistic fof duellistic, burnt-umber for burnt umber, wooliness for woolliness, and flavorous for .fla­vourous). From this, one can estimate that about 25,000 words not available in Webster can be found in Lehnert. Well over half of the se are multi-word terms, such as Marxist- Leninist thought, basic slag, world exhibition, twilight curve, dredge up, gold- star mother, and stand- behind.
