UPDATE I ve gotten used to most of the user interface quirks so I ll give it an extra star Good for finding words that aren t in other American dictionaries I think it looks odd that the original word is included in the Thesaurus entries but I suppose it saves storage to be able to link one entry to multiple words Original review from 6 yrs ago I find this app to be handy but with some shortcomings I find the user interface a bit awkward I wish the navigation arrows went between screens I ve looked at and not just screens within a category more like a web browser The depth detail are inconsistent across definitions i e for different words or phrases but generally good when the info is there Some of the written pronunciations are dead wrong in those cases the audio version is usually correct and vice versa The app is worth having but could be better             Pretty good Tremolux66
nice to have at hand when a word comes up that i don t know i can look it up immediately instead of forgetting about it also the random word game is surprisingly engaging                     handy newyorkrichard

For example the word prohibition is transcribed almost correctly However the pronunciation not only does not match the transcription but also is produced with an aspirated h I bought this specifically for its IPA transcription which turns out to be perhaps 50 accurate But the worse part is the pronunciation that does not match the word s IPA transcription     Error in IPA transcription and pronunciation T P C C
Very complete Love the wordorigin notes                 Great app
I keep this app on my home page an use it all the time to educate myself or find synonyms Search works well an it is quick and thorough The only critique I have would be that it should have a category of related words in the Thesauruslike Rogets and include relevant antonyms                 Word book

Thats very useful and pretty fast to give clear examples or definitions              Webster Dictionary is very useful and pretty fast to give clear definition
I am disappointed in Word Book Any number of times I have tried to look up words that did not appear to be uncommon and no definition was offered It has gotten to the point where I am much more likely to just do a google search to find a definition than trust that Word Book will have one for me I expected much much more        Word Book Is Limited

The easiest word that comes to mind is the word pope upon looking it up the Wordbook app doesnt even print the Latin papa nor does it show the word father really Im trying to figure out where it went all wrong with the definition when it failed to put an accurate definition of the words actual meaning Its much more than just what they say it is Why did they cut the real meaning out of the word Very weird Im not sure I like the accuracy of this app One star for an weak definition     Pretty good but
Excellent tool I use regularly both at work and home to communicate more effectively and to better understand what I read The product also strikes a good balance regarding memory management on the phone The dictionary is typically adequate but limited when there is no cell phone connection Therefore the impact on the phone is minimal Then the lookup capabilities become extensive when a connection is present I will install this product on every phone I purchase                 Loyal Customer since 2008
It is worth buying Very very helpful It helps me express my thoughts well I had this for years now and I am happy with it Sharp as a razor                 Buy
This app is quick complete and powerful I use it with my grammar and Latin classes                 Should come with the device
