I'm new, so may have missed previous posts on this topic, but the Washington Kurdish Institute (www.kurd.org) is a good resource for all things Kurdish here in D.C. I know they were very enthusiastic in their support of Michael Chyet's Kurdish Dictionary Kurmanji-English, published by Yale University Press in 2002. From Chyet's bio: "This dictionary focuses on modern usage of the Kurmanji dialect of Kurdish, which is spoken in Turkey, Syria, Iran, Iraq and parts of the former Soviet Union."
Cheers,
