Advanced English Dictionary.

I am very satisfied! Good help for non native speakers, with the pronounciation (online).

One of my most used apps. The UI is intuitive and just works perfectly.

Deze app is een welkome uitbreiding van het standaard woordenboek.

This has to be THE WORST dictionary ever! A dictionary should define a word- Period! It does not need to list EVERY possible use of that word as a separate entry!! And should not list every phrase the word is used in as separate entries!! Type in “A”, “And”, “At”, etc- and there are literally HUNDREDS of entries for the word! A few examples can be easily listed in the definition, NOT as separate entries!! A dictionary SHOULD be scrollable- one should be able to type in a few letters and see the words beyond that in the entries, without having to change one letter to continue thru the list! For example: if I type “rad”… I should not have to change the “d” to an “e” to continue scrolling! Obscene slang words are generally not included in dictionaries, they are put in urban or slang dictionaries, and not listed hundreds of times in a row listing every slang phrase ever known! Misspelled words should not be listed as entries- the search feature would take a person to the proper spelling! Don’t bother with this dictionary, it is not worth the aggravation!!

I’m still waiting for that simple bookmark sorting feature. 11 yrs and counting! To the reviews that say there’s no thesaurus…follow the word links. Every word on any page is a live link to another page with more similar words. Isn’t that what a thesaurus is? Links to words that are similar? It’s not a 3-star app either. I’ve used this app for years(iPad 2, 2012 I think?) but even after all this time, the bookmarked word list STILL has no sorting function, not even alphabetically. If you’ve bookmarked hundreds of words as I have, it’s a slog to do it manually. Grab a W word from most recent bookmarked words and drag it past all the other words to its rightful place at the bottom of the list. Now do that with each unsorted new word. The 2nd issue is not being able to backup said bookmark list as separate readable list file to store and print out for study purposes. All other mentioned attributes in other reviews are true. There are even adapted foreign word phrases like sotto voce and noblesse oblige, a good amount of slang, and outdated but fun words like snollygoster and flapdoodler that do have a purpose when no other word would do the job. And for the consummate wordsmith, the thesaurus feature can keep you entertained for hours. For me, it’s a 5-star app that isn’t. Add the aforementioned vital features and it’s worth a whole sky full of stars!

I’ve had this App for years and I absolutely love it! I use it daily for school.

Indicated as a great thesaurus but only offers a handful of synonyms and only ny reading through the definitions of a word

It has literally every word I’ve looked up and I read a lot. Compare to the other apps, this is 332 mb; others are 40 or 90. Any proper name, place name, mythological figure, many foreign words. Also will pronounce a word for you. Also gives pretty decent etymology. Highly recommended.

This dictionary is far above average — excellent in many regards. My one wishes that they would add the ability to export bookmarked words – e.g. for vocabulary building, or other uses.
