Full featured dictionary with real voice recorded!
Thanks for the update.
CONTENT:
WordBook is based on WordNet database from the Princeton University. The content is concise and very easy to read. This app does a good job in choosing text color and style, far better than other WordNet based dictionaries available in this store. It also provides brief word history information at the end of definitions.
Like many WordNet implementations, the dictionary provide semantic relations of words (they call it Links). This is unique and not available in any other branded dictionary like AHD, M-W or Oxford.
Pronunciation guide is in IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet), not popular in the US. Audio pronunciation is provided online (a human voice not a synthesized voice). This is a great design. I appreciate not having to carry big sound files .
USER INTERFACE :
WordBook shines when it comes to user interface. Everything makes sense and is at the right place.
