Importance of English to Hebrew Dictionaries.

I have been using Jewish dictionaries for over ten years. I perfer online translation dictionaries to ones in book form although often, I encounter difficulties finding Hebrew letters to type with. Usually, in that case, I put "Hebrew alphabet" into a search engine and find letters to copy and paste. Hebrew is a relatively simple language so English to Hebrew dictionaries are extremely useful, as the sentence structure of Hebrew is quite similar to that of English. My only major complaint with general English to Hebrew dictionaries is that they typically do not contain all verb forms so unless I am familiar with the verb form, it becomes very difficult to look up the word, as too often, the first letter of that word is not part of the root, which makes for a very difficult search, considering that dictionaries are typically organized in alphabetical order.
