Dont Bother

Awful! I tried for several minutes to get this to do a simple translation. I never succeeded. 30 seconds with Google did the trick, though. Should have tried that first! Total waste of money.

Translation review

Not that good, doesnt really help.

Boo

Not accurate at all. Google trans is way better. It doesnt even have the word "ave

Worthless! Sic semper garbagus

This Dictionary doesnt cover most of the Latin we see daily ... The back of a one dollar bill. Unless, ofcourse you believe the Freemasons got to them first.

Too many mistakes to count

This dictionary is worthless - full of misinformation. It translates uncle as venia (mercy), unconditionally as pudor (shame) - to cite just two examples of the kind of inaccuracies that abound here. I hope no one has used this to get a tattoo.

Ripoff no voice pronounciation

You must buy for another 1.99 the voice app. Misleading and expensive. Pick another and save your money!

Decent app

Brilliant app, very nifty for the everyday scholar

Good

Super easy to use, an so far it has all the words Ive had to look for.

Looking elsewhere

I find this app to be virtually useless. If you you do find the word you looking for it is not declined etc. etc. Looks like Ill be going back to the cheaper more useful model.

It is something like dictionary

Nowadays anybody and his brother gets into the business of being lexicographer. This is a result of such an effort! Alas the outcome is far from being adequate, or passable. It is not a dictionary, it is not even an idioms dictionary, it is something I have struggled to define it but failed. The only good thing about it, it is cheap, akin to $1.99 gadget if it does not deliver what it promises you throw it away, and no big loss! But, I believe time is also should be part of this equation. You buy it, install it, try to work it eventually it is a big disappointment

Okay

It is not great. Could not find the stem word. Very difficult to find words.

Not worth it

I didnt get what i thought i was getting It s a waste of money

Not what describes!

No pronunciation for the Latin words which is why I bought the ap.

Great

Great for reference and searches.

OK app, dont buy voice upgrade

The app works fairly well, but some of the features are not good at all. Do not spend $1.99 for the pronunciation upgrade because it only provides English pronunciation on the translation screen even when you switch languages as directed by the app. Please fix and Ill rate 5 stars! Otherwise a handy app not just for translating Caesars Gallic Wars but also for the odd Latin phrase you come across in literature.

Voices not worth the $1.99

Caveat emptor! Its misleading that the voice packages work with the Latin words; only works with the English....as if you might be a Roman who needs to hear English. Save your money.

Really great, but.....

Definitely geared for Medieval Latin. It would really help if the words that have js would also have is. Such as in addition to jus, juris have ius, iuris.

Deceived! No Latin Voice Translation.

I purchased this app believing I would be able to hear the pronunciation in Latin. It prompted me to make another upgrade to get the pronunciations only to discover it was only an English voice, not Latin. If you want to know how to pronounce words in Latin, DONT BUY THIS APP!

great

its great for simply words yet compound words are a no go, Ive taken a latin classes and some of the compound words like "constituntur" doesnt show up it means "sets up his by" its a compound word.

You have lost an important feature!

Please put IPA transcriptions back into your dictionary. You have lovely new features, but scholars use dictionaries, and we know IPA. Its an important tool for teaching. Let me know when you fix this, so I may recommend it once again.
