Hello. This is my first post here and it's not even gaming-related. Oh, well, I just thought I'd ask because I'm a regular reader and it seems like a nice community. I'm looking for a good french-english dictionary on my iphone. I have found two that seem to be worth getting : one by Harraps and the other by Collins, both reputable paper and electronic dictionaries publishers. My use for them is I like reading books in english (even though my native language is french) and I sometimes have to check the meanings of words. I have used a dedicated harraps electronic device in the past, but if I can carry everything in my iphone, it's better. My experience with Harraps has been generally good, but I found it lacking when it comes to slang. I wonder if Collins is better in this repect. Did anyone try any of those two dictionaries? If so, what was your experience ? Price shouldn't be an issue, as they are both priced the same (19.99 in the Belgian store). I'm looking forward to reading you.
If you read English e-books in eReader on your iPhone, there will be a pretty comfortable way: Buy Electronic Pocket Oxford English French Dictionary and install it in your eReader on the iPhone. After that when you read an e-book and see an unknown word, just tap on it et voilà: You get the translation for this word immediately.
I have the Collins one and it is very good. I don't know the other. The collins ones also have the conjugation of any verb and it looks nice.
