Electronic Spanish-English Dictionaries - the Dilemma

Here at ABT Language Services we're often asked to recommend good Spanish-English dictionaries. There are lots of sites on the Net about paper dictionaries, but not so many about electronic Spanish-English dictionaries - and the ones that do exist often present a wide range of models without really telling you which one is most suitable for your particular needs.

We decided to remedy that situation for you. On this site you'll discover which electronic Spanish-English dictionary we consider ideal for students, travelers or business people. But first a look at the advantages of electronic Spanish-English dictionaries...

Spanish-English Dictionary - Paper or Electronic?

You've probably used a paper Spanish-English dictionary all your life, so why change to an electronic one?

Just think of the advantages:

• You'll feel the difference right from the beginning - your electronic Spanish-English dictionary will weigh perhaps 4 ounces, compared with 10 pounds for a paper one!

• It's smaller, too, and you can fit it almost anywhere - an electronic Spanish-English dictionary is like a pocket address book. Just put it in your backpack, take it with you and forget about it until you need it!

• With an electronic talking dictionary you'll actually hear the words. Feel much more confident about your pronunciation - no more guessing or deciphering difficult phonetic transcriptions.

• Save time. No more flipping through all those pages - just type in the word you're looking for, or in many dictionaries just say it, and out comes your answer!

• You get much more than just a Spanish-English dictionary - many electronic dictionaries include such things as grammar reference, colloquialisms, synonyms and anonyms, irregular verbs. Some even have currency converters, world time, math calculators...

• And if you need a break from your language studies, your electronic Spanish-English dictionary is even packed with games!
