Van Langen’s Woordenboek der Atjehsche taal (“Dictionary of the Atjehnese Language”) is a comprehensive dictionary of the Acehnese language compiled by K. F. H. van Langen, published at The Hague in 1889 in octavo format.

Content

Van Langen’s dictionary was the standard lexicographical reference for the Acehnese language during the colonial period. It was offered in 1902 by Martinus Nijhoff at 3.50 florins. Van Langen also published a companion volume, the Handleiding voor de beoefening der Atjehsche taal (“Guide for the Study of the Atjehnese Language”), also in 1889, priced at 1.75 florins, which included a reading book (leesboek). Together, these two works provided the essential linguistic toolkit for Dutch officials and scholars working in Atjeh.
