"El mejor diccionario inglés español para Android"

Reviewed by: Peter Warrior / Jun 04, 2012

Most comprehensive dictionary app.

An app like Spa-Eng Dictionary may seem unuseful when you take into account there there are umpteen websites that offer free translations. However, even when we were also reluctant at the beginning, everything turned upside down and this app resulted to be a must have on our beloved 'droids.

We've arrived to this conclusion once we checked that it's far more than a dictionary. It's that and much more. There are examples of everyday sentences, verb conjugation and a simple yet fun quiz to practice vocabulary in your spare time. There's also a short translation option and an awesome search bar with predictive results. Adding a little plug in it can also work by voice. It may or may not be a flaw, but the only thing we've missed are the Argentinean tenses and Panhispanic meanings. In exchange, its main strength is it's speed. It works at light speed and it never needs to be online.

This complete version comes with absolutely all the features and the huge database. In the end, it's the perfect app both for those who are travelling to Spain or any Spanish-speaking country and those who are studying Cervantes's noble language.

    I have yet to find a word that the paid version hasn't covered. As an Englishman living in Spain I use this everyday for reading papers and such. Very handy to have on your phone.

    Great app, but there is a feature in the iOS version lacking in the Android version: the ability to go straight from the dictionary definition of a verb to the conjugations and back. Here you have to find your verb on the Verbs tab. Please fix this! That

    I brought this thinking it would be useful to translate the odd words on the fly with my native speaking Latin American wife. Actually it is far better than that! When you're using small screens I don't want lots of options or it drives me nuts. So fast,

    Could default to a blank search field after obtaining a definition so you don't have to erase the word before looking up the next one. Just a suggestion.
