    Kuvi-Oriya-English Dictionary
    (1995) Ramakrishna Reddy, B. ; Joy Reddy; Mahapatra, B.P.
    The dictionary is not only a description of the lexicon of a language but is also a description of the culture of its speakers codified in the words. The tribal language dictionaries are particularly useful from this point of view for culture studies, though cultural information is kept to the minimum in this dictionary, which is primarily meant for linguistic and pedagogical purposes.
