I can't think of a better dictionary in print form to recommend than Trask. Until you get a copy, you can always use the Google define: format to track down definitions for terms you don't know, if it's not listed in the SIL Glossary. If you use Google this way for a while and save bookmarks to the parent sites hosting the definitions you find, you should have a very useful little collection of resources that you can browse directly from time to time. -- Mark
