I Love iTranslate Translator
It is so easy to use and I only use it for the translation of the Vietnamese language, but since it does such an excellent job of translating, I am sure that whatever language I would want to use would work equally well. To me it is well worth the yearly expense knowing that the people reading what I am writing in English can understand me perfectly! Yay !!!

So many times when I’m trying to translate something I get ready to translate and once it translate, it brings up the rating and I need to do something in a hurry. They put the rating at the wrong time.

I use this app daily. I have never had a complaint with my translations from others. I love that you can select Spanish for a specific region.
Colloquialisms are marvelous things, but hard to pin down.
Without knowing the Colloquialisms - you do not know a language, nor the culture you are in.
Without knowing the language derogatory idioms specific to your perceived origins, and not knowing critical language swear words, a traveler’s life could be in danger, and they may never know it until it is too late.
These are two of my criteria used to evaluate a language translation program for excellence.
iTranslate Pro is one of the better translation applications available to the user in the Apple App Store. I would rate it Very Good for the common user for a relatively good translation. It does not include my two primary criteria.
However, it is not perfect. Using one of eleven languages in which I have conversed, Hausa, the second largest African language used primarily in West Africa as my example, iTranslate is using what I loosely term a transient “Metropolitan” Hausa as their base versus the pure Hausa from the heart of Hausaland centered in Sokoto.
