WordRefrence Itself Gets 7 Stars
By Another Language Teacher (Pcmac user)
The dictionary—the way it is always in progress and professionally moderated—the large and hungry board community, make it almost the only tool you need for learning. It is missing an aspect however, as it provides no way for us to take what it showed us and put it in long-term memory. They main website at least has the lists area, even though it still provides no way to drill those words other than clicking through the list. They could enable exporting to .xml which you can import to Quizlet and Anki. It’s up to them to figure out how people can choose the definitions that they want to study.
I am also giving them a lower score for their design that hasn’t been updated since the 90s. It would be cool if they let the community vote on it.

Until the new update...
By Lisbet... (Pcmac user)
I have always used word reference to help me with Spanish class. The explanations of when to use each word is very useful! However there are a few things that could be done better. One, maybe explain how the meaning of a word changes when used in different tenses, for example words have different meanings when in preterite vs imperfect.
There are three huge things that are very IRRITATING with the new update.
•The stupid banner that runs across the bottom shrinks the screen size greatly.
•When you switch from Spanish to English and English to Spanish, the word you have entered in the search bar disappears. This causes you to have to retype it.
•There used to be a forward and a backward button. Now there is only a backward one. If you are trying to switch off between the definitions of two words, you now have to re-type it in, and you can't press a forward button.
Other than that, the app is really amazing, and I would recommend as the best translator around. Just please fix those problems, and it will be easily 5 stars!

Wonderful app, especially for students!
By RLaCoss (Pcmac user)
I’m a student in French, and I’ve been using Word Reference for the past 3 years. It is so helpful. You can fine the word in the other language, see the plurality, the gender, and an example sentence in both English and the other language. Word Reference has a big variety of languages, and you can switch between them. Overall, I’d say this app is definitely worth getting if you’re learning a new language. The best part— it’s free! You don’t have to pay anything, which is very good to know.

Incomplete
By Frank Fazzio (Pcmac user)
Can you imagine this. The app does not give you the conjugation of être!! Pretty important word to neglect.
UPDATE: It does, if you can figure out how to get to it. For MOST verbs, if you look up the French verb and see the English definitions, you are looking at the top-left tab: French-English. If you click the top-right tab: French Verbs, you get the full conjugation. But not for être. While viewing the English definitions, if you scroll to very near the bottom of the page, you find a link, in French, that gets you to the conjugation. I know the app is free, but really. It isn’t what I would want as an example of the quality of my work.
