The Tatar Library of David Bade

We had the pleasure of recently meeting a certain retired linguist named David Bade, of Illinois. I'm not certain that linguistics was his primary interest, but his language library is impressive, that of a sophisticated scholar. We spoke of our love of Szwede Slavic books in Palo Alto California. After he mentioned this store, I knew that we were kindred spirits. He practically gave his library to me, a treasure trove of Tatar language books. We are beyond grateful.

Tatar - Russian Dictionary 1966


This is a re post of that HUGE Tatar/Russian Dictionary from 1966. (140MB!)
This dictionary is a Xerox of the original held at University of California, Berkeley.
The professor would not permit the dictionary to leave the building, so I stood next to his desk and copied it in its entirety. The Xerox machine ran out of paper and broke down a few times, professor running out of patience. This file is a .pdf of a scan of a Xerox so it is far from pristine. Another problem I encountered in 1987, when this was scanned was that there did not exist a Tatar/English dictionary. I would use this dictionary first and then to a Russian/English dictionary. You could imagine the difficulty in this two step process. Here it is:

The Adobe Acrobat "Search" box on this makes it brilliant. Don't bother with this unless your computer is really fast.

Tatar English - English Tatar Dictionary SF Tatar Virtual Library


Here's the latest addition to the Unofficial San Francisco Public Library Tatar Language Department.

I'm told this book is out of print. I've purchased several copies over the years and encourage you to do the same. It's scanned and .pdf here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7BF4TMUZ
The font is a san serif and the original is just as lame quality as the .pdf.
I wish this book was a hundred times bigger.

Tatar - Russian Dictionary - UC Berkeley



This is a full scan of that dictionary I was talking about. It was discovered in the Russian Language department of UC Berkeley about 24 years ago or so. I stood there and photocopied the entire thing.  The Professor (or whoever he was) was getting irritated with me as the Xerox machine ran out of ink a few times and a few problems here and there.  He became my angry little tech support guy.  It took half a day. I thanked him a million times.
This is a .pdf of those xeroxes. The first three pages are missing, rotted away long ago. The rest of the dictionary is a tad hard on the eyeballs, but the information is all there. I didn't change a thing or make up any words. It ends at page 863 with a Tatar Language lesson in Russian at the end. At the time that this dictionary was copied, there didn't exist yet a Tatar-English Dictionary. This dictionary was the first step, then on to a Russian-English Dictionary. You could image the frustration at exploring words heading down the wrong "branch". There was no assurance of precision and some words would simply have to make "sense" or relate in context.

Here's a sample page

It's a 143 mb .pdf and well worth the massive download.
I'm praying that someone out there besides myself appreciates this colossal amount of work.
