aust'nne, there is an Igbo-English dictionary by Prof. Michael Echeruo which is available on amazon.com


most of us face the same problem , i can't speak my dialect very well so am settled with the central igbo thanks for the link there are other things i didn't know about the igbo's so i will go thru it later in the day.
