Spanish-English Dictionary 6th Edition: A Handy Reference App

Get it from the authoritative source!

Spanish is widely used in the U.S., in homes, schools and in the workplace and is the second most spoken language here.  This language is extensively rich, thanks to its vast diversity of terminology. If you want to learn Spanish, the dictionary can be an important resource.

Spanish-English Dictionary 6th Edition, an iPhone app from the University of Chicago, has the most comprehensive collection of contemporary words and technical, scientific, political and literary terms in Spanish and English. Therefore, users can get English definition for Spanish words or vice versa.

The homescreen features the list of alphabets and by selecting a letter, you can access all the words that start with that particular alphabet. Users can bookmark a word for quick access, add notes to it or add it to the word list. It has a few word lists such as digital technology terms, medical terms and soccer terms. You can customize them by adding or removing a list.

The top bar offers the option to switch between English-Spanish and Spanish-English dictionaries, while the search box facilitates locating a particular word. Activities section adds an element of fun by letting users play quiz with flashcards and multiple choice questions. The Help area is there to make it easy for the users to explore the features of the app. However, it is available only in English.

When it comes to price, Spanish-English Dictionary 6th Edition is a bit on the higher side – USD 9.99. I think this price might make a few users to look for other options. Having said that, you can buy only a pocket dictionary for $10. It is still better than any comprehensive paper dictionary as it can be referred in no time.

Spanish-English Dictionary 6th Edition is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad and requires iOS 4.3 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5. The first version was launched a couple of weeks ago and it looks fine without crashes. If you deal with Spanish, this app is a saver; it is smart, convenient and very reliable!
