A series of dual-language crosswords primarily written for learners of English as a second language (ESOL). However English-speakers can also benefit from learning other languages in this series, especially French, Spanish and German. Unashamedly, this app focuses on building vocabulary in a second language. All the crosswords have mixed-language clues and answers within the same crossword. These bilingual crosswords are known as Crossmots. From the English 'Cross' and the French word for 'Word'- 'Mots'. They provide many hours of fun and are great at learning vocabulary. Languages supported: Czech Danish Dutch Finnish French German Hungarian Irish/Gaelic Italian Polish Portuguese Romanian Spanish Swedish Turkish Ukrainian

Dual and Lexfall are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters — price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
