### 5/5 — Excellent app Easy to use

*2024-01-07, version 4.1*

I always after apps or any program that it’s options are clear and easy to use also helpful basically it should provide all the futures that it’s advertising and stands for and this is one of them 
It’s doesn’t fully cover all the worlds but I rarely find a word that isn’t translated but still you get the closest word to it, I had it since almost 2011-2012 and will keep it. Highly recommended and it is a must have. For such small app(only few MB) and free!, it’s surprisingly good with so so many words and their meanings with the option to pronounce it as well.
Download it and see yourself 
Thank you.
