In case you are also looking for online dictionaries, I recommend: 1. http://www.yakugo.com/WebHint/Quick.aspx 2. http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/ [1] is helpful when you need to know the pronounciation of individual kanjis that appear in the explanation itself.

I use "Tagaini jisho" Perhaps it's not the best but it's free

Liyun!!!!!!!! If you want a good dictionary tell me on msn, hehe. Use this! http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~jwb/cgi-bin/wwwjdic.cgi?1C This is better because have a lot of kotowaza and the translations of it, the problem is are only in spanish. . .(T.T) See http://www.nichiza.com/rui/rui.php
