Most probably you haven’t. Atleast I hadn’t, till today. Not sure from when they have it, but the dictionary app from Google is crisp, fast and accurate.

Google Dictionary provides definitions and synonyms in almost thirty different languages, pulled from a scope of different sources and impressively fast.

In addition to Google’s own database of definitions, looking up a word on the Dictionary website provides a list of definitions pulled from a variety of academically authoritative sources. You can mark words with the star button and come back to them later, see a list of recent searches and switch to translator resources or dictionaries for other languages.

    I hated the new translator of google. It now suxx for those languages that aren’t on the english-like formation.

  3. Bionic Says:

    did a site lookup on google and there were actually a few new to me incl the dictionary

    although i must say i prefer offline dictionaries, wordweb is one great software wich i like very much, also portable if you like that,
    as complementary you can add tab´s in wordweb for online dictionaries such as googles
