Great resource!
Its ok
Online search doesnt work well, it will find the word or sentence but then you cant listen to it. Id give this a better rating if translated and pronounced sentences.
Needs improvement
The app is user friendly and has a ton of words for translation. The only drawback is the audio pronunciation is so fast, you cant really hear clearly how the word is said. This is a key factor in trying to learn proper pronunciation. If they were to slow down the audio or show the pronunciation it would be a great improvement.
Awesome!
This app is extremely helpful. Can you make it so that shaking will bring up a new word without needing to close the window? Its tedious to close it and re-shake every time I want a new random word. Id prefer to be able to simply shake again and have another random word show up.
