The review dwells on Professor S.Suleymani`s bilingual dictionary where the author of the article analyzes lexicographical peculiarities of the dictionary in question. The author of the review deems that having compiled this dictionary being the only one by its volume and content at the present stage of Tajik lexicography S. Suleymani revived the mediaeval traditions of composing bilingual dictionaries in the Persian-Tajik lexicography and made it nearer to commonly accepted norms and principles of world lexicography at the same time. Taking this fact and also Professor S.Suleymani`s immense labour into consideration the reviewer calls him “a regenerator of Tajik lexicography traditions”. A lot of concrete examples and facts are adduced in the review disclosing the novelty and significance of the Arabic-Tajik dictionary compiled by S.Suleymani.
