Review & Description

The English Talking Dictionary, first and foremost, is a comprehensive dictionary. It is, however, much more than a dictionary. The English Talking Dictionary talks. It reads the definition of a word aloud. The user can hear the word used in a sentence. It has a fully integrated thesaurus for referencing synonyms and antonyms of all words. It includes slang, jargon and historical figures. It also allows the reader to look up a word without knowing exactly how it is spelled and search for words by concept. A standard desktop dictionary contains approximately 110,000 words with definitions. The English Talking Dictionary contains over 250,000 words. The English Talking Dictionary can be used as a stand-alone product or it can be used to augment existing and ongoing reading activities. It is as simple as highlighting the desired word. The English Talking Dictionary looks up the word, reads the definition aloud, presents the user with a list of synonyms and can use the word in a sentence. The features of the English Talking Dictionary can be used without exiting the current application. The English Talking Dictionary - the most powerful, affordable, online integrated dictionary, thesaurus and composition aid ANYWHERE!!
