This is the most innovative, comprehensive, and scholarly bilingual dictionary of Russian idioms available today. It includes close to 14,000 idioms, set expressions, and sayings found in contemporary colloquial Russian and in literature from the nineteenth century to the present. The Russian idioms are provided with many English equivalents to render idioms in various contexts. Illustrative examples are cited to show how the idioms are used in context. Each entry also contains a grammatical description of the idiom, a definition—an innovative feature for a bilingual dictionary—and stylistic and usage information. A most notable part of the work is the alphanumeric index that makes finding the right expression very easy.

Review
"Professor Lubensky has made what I already considered to be the definitive Russian-English dictionary of idioms even better. It is indispensable for any Russian-English translator, as well as any serious student of the Russian language."—Steven Shabad, ATA-certified translator (Steven Shabad 2013-07-17)
"[The book] stands out for its excellent organization, systematic approach, detailed grammatical information and a variety of usage examples."—Anatoly Liberman, University of Minnesota (Anatoly Liberman 2013-07-17)
"I own many dictionaries of many kinds, but there is none I enjoy using more than Sophia Lubensky's. It is organised impeccably. The explanations are crystal clear. And the illustrative examples are entertaining and often memorable. I am delighted that it is being republished in an expanded version."—Robert Chandler, translator of Vasily Grossman's Life and Fate (Robert Chandler 2013-07-22)
“Mae West said it best: 'Too much of a good thing can be wonderful!'
While she may not have had this book in mind, I own that sentiment with regard to this new revised edition of Sophia Lubensky’s magnificent Russian-English Dictionary of Idioms, first published in 1995. As a life-long student of the Russian language, a retired professor of Russian literature, and as an experienced translator, I cannot express enough praise for this labor of love. How on earth did we ever manage before it? And now, we are treated to a new edition. How lucky can we get?”
—Michael R. Katz, C.V. Starr Professor Emeritus of Russian and East European Studies at Middlebury College (Michael R. Katz 2013-07-22)
“Eighteen years after publishing her enormously successful Russian-English Dictionary of Idioms, Sophia Lubensky has given us a significantly enlarged and revised edition. Anyone who explores the nearly 14,000 idioms included here, traces their past and current usage in a wide variety of contexts, compares them to their English equivalents, will once again be struck by the aptness of Ivan Turgenev’s famous characterization of the Russian language as 'great, mighty, truthful, and free.' The new edition will delight translators and others dealing professionally with Russia, teachers and students of Russian, and all who cherish Russian culture and its verbal core.”
—Henryk Baran, Professor of Russian Studies, University at Albany (Henryk Baran 2013-07-22)
"Hardly a day goes by when I do not open my 'Lubensky.' My bookshelves groans with mediocre RussianEnglish dictionaries, but this one gathers no dust. Thank goodness for the revised edition. This is an indispensible work for any student of Russian language and especially for Russian into English translators. "
— Nora Seligman Favorov, Russian to English translator, Yale University Press and Russian Life magazine (Nora Seligman Favorov 2013-07-22)
"Sophia Lubensky’s Russian-English Dictionary of Idioms is a masterpiece of scholarship and a treasure trove for translators. Updated to capture the rapid changes in contemporary usage, it is an indispensable guide to understanding idioms in various contexts and time periods, learning how to use them, and translating them into English. No student of Russian or translator should be without it"
—Michele A. Berdy, author of The Russian Word’s Worth (Michele Berdy 2013-07-22)
"It is a great pleasure to learn that the Yale Press has undertaken to publish a new, revised version of Sophie Lubensky's wonderful Russian-English Dictionary of Idioms. All of us who deal professionally with Russian have for years kept her book close at hand, an indispensable resource. It not only explains Russian idioms whose meaning is often far from readily apparent, but also renders them into genuine English, and at a corresponding stylistic level, from solemn and lofty to folksy, colloquial, or slang. The original edition was a monumental achievement, and the revision can only add to its value."— Hugh McLean, University of California, Berkeley. (Hugh McLean 2013-07-23)
"A most complete Russian-English dictionary of idioms, S. I. Lubensky’s Comprehensive Russian-English Phraseological Dictionary [2004] offers virtually the only lexicographic description of Russian phraseology alongside its English counterpart which is based on contemporary notions of linguistically significant features of idioms. In addition to English equivalents and government patterns (for verbal idioms), this dictionary provides definitions of Russian idioms in English. The presentation of entries and principles employed to describe the idioms meet the highest lexicographic standards." —Dmitrij Dobrovolskij (Dmitrij Dobrovolskij 2013-07-29)

Lubensky has done everyone a huge solid!!!
By BJS
All I have to say is wow. As somebody who has studied Russian for upwards of ten years, I found myself at a plateau. I am able to say everything I need to and be understood, as well as understanding most of what I hear. I speak well, but there is still that not-quite-like-them barrier. This gem has done more to advance my Russian in one year than anything else the past five years combined. This has helped me better understand and use the cultural nuances of the language through idiomatic expression. This book goes far beyond idioms, as it provides everyday common sayings, all compiled in a single comprehensive volume. The price is hefty, but is worth every penny if you are serious about Russian, and especially if you feel like you have reached a stopping point in your language acquisition. Aside from having extreme practical use, this book is actually a lot of fun!!! And if my memory serves me correctly, that is why I began learning Russian in the first place. I would also recommend Stephen Marder's "Supplementary Russian-English Dictionary" as another great resource to use in conjunction with this book if you are looking to break past a plateau.

One of the best dictionaries ever!
By Jodi
One of the greatest books for Russian-English translators, but it is huge! I wish it'd be in e-book form!!!

The best dictionary that I made aquanted with.
By Vladimir Zakharov
I like detailed multivariate vocabulary about idioms, proverbs and expressions that I know in Russian.
Before buying it I compared this Dictionary with several others. Quantity of analogues, comparisons etc. is much more than in any other one. Even if I cannot find some idiomatic expression I can combine it using other words in the same dictionary.
