User reviews

Delete others this it a keeper

In sort I’ve found it extremely simple to use and maneuver in this app.

Using Glosbe as a Kurd

Thank you for creating such a good dictionary. I have used this dictionary to learn English words via my Kurdish and that was awesome. I could find many English words meaning in Kurdish and even vice versa thanks to polish people that have created this app.

Good For Language Learning

As someone who learns multiple languages, this app, especially the dictionary, contains a lot of examples. It also contains real equivalent in my native language, good examples of conjugations and an amazing traduction.

I do recommend this app.

The only pet peeve about this app is that the examples aren’t always correct, because everyone can add examples, and not everyone knows how it seems like. In résumé, it’s like an “open” dictionary… It doesn’t seem like these examples are verified…

Because of that, I give it a 4/5.

Bug with login function

It’s almost year having this bug - can’t use app.

It is not possible to login to the app if the user used web version on the same device - I had to logout and login several times. Also there is no Favourite option in the app, I couldn’t see the list of words that was created on web site

Custom word lists

Very good dictionary. Still It would be nice to have some lists of already translated words. It looks like that in next version it should appear a possibility to add already translated words to a list. And what about lists or tags to group words from different languages or group words in any arbitrary way?
