## What is World Number Translator?

Have you ever noticed it can be hard to learn to say and spell numbers in different languages because you never see them spelled out in writing? You might see "Uno Dos Tres, ..." in one chapter in your textbook, and then never again. So I created this app to to solve the problem (and just because I wanted to learn to count in other languages ;-). 

It's great for practice because it has a special "Odometer" style input that makes it easy to quickly count up and down by ones, tens, hundreds, etc. Of course it has a calculator-style input, too. And for practice recognizing numbers it has a fast-paced game: see the spelled number and tap in the digits as fast as you can.

Here are some of the things Polynumial is useful for:
• Quick translation of numbers into spelled-out words. 
• Learning to count in another language
• Writing out a number on a check
• Practicing number translation.

It translates over 50 languages (see the list below).

For most languages when you enter a number Polynumial shows the spelled-out version, like "cuarenta y dos" for 42 in Spanish. 

For many languages that aren't based on the latin alphabet it also supports the 'latinized' spellings, to help you remember how to pronounce them. So in Chinese the number 1,234 is spelled "一千二百三十四“, and the pronounceable version (in pinyin) is "yī qiān èr bǎi sān shí sì".

### 5/5 — French

*2024-04-30*

I will learn more

### 5/5 — great for practicing numbers

*2024-04-22*

the counter mode is perfect for practicing counting up and down, and you can even count by tens or hundreds or thousands or whatever

### 5/5 — Easy to use and extensive

*2022-10-25*

I bought the paid version after enjoying the free one for some time so I don’t know if this is only in the paid version but I just found a feature I didn’t know existed. The counter function counts 0-9 but you can add columns with + and count higher just by choosing digits in a scrolling list. Any number you want. For example I just randomly selected drie miljoen drie­honderd­vijf­en­tachtig (in Dutch). 3.000.385. There is audio for many languages, and the numbers are displayed in their script and romanization. Counter goes up to the billions place e.g. 九十亿 jiǔ shí yì (9 billion in Chinese). How delightful and useful.  (It is based on Apple translate so any audio glitches are Apple’s not the app’s.)

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-09-07*

Thank you. 谢谢。I really love this app. It helps with me learning my numbers in Mandarin Chinese. Thank you. 谢谢。

### 5/5 — Just what I needed!

*2017-05-25*

I've been having a difficult time learning Russian numbers. This app is perfect! I can test myself, review numbers, and listen to  pronunciation.

### 3/5 — Korean numbers

*2016-07-21*

The app is all right, as long as you are satisfied with the Sino-Korean system. It really should have included the Native Korean numbers, as well. In that case, I could have given the app five stars.

### 2/5 — Ugly beyond belief

*2014-09-12*

I can hardly even begin to rate the functionality of this app, which may be useful, because the design is so ugly. I couldn't bear to keep it on my phone.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2014-02-16*

Please add more language options in the next update. The languages I want to request are:
Basque
Catalan
Czech
Danish
Dutch
Finnish
Frisian
Icelandic
Kannada
Latvian
Lithuanian
Manx
Mongolian
Occitan
Picard
Quechua
Romansh
Tibetan
Urdu
Thanks.

### 5/5 — Easy to use - great app.

*2013-10-30*

This app is very easy to use and displays the number in the language you choose as well as the numerals in that language.  Very handy for foreign currencies!
