I thought I was making a funny when I said that the good people at bab.la should make an iPhone/iPod Touch app for their on-line dictionary. It turns out that they were right in the midst of doing just that. Their first app is now available on iTunes, for German -> English. It’s free, and is a great way to work on your German (or Englisch).
They plan on producing apps for the other 24 dictionaries they have on the go. Wow.
A follow-up to the preceding post on the bab.la on-line dictionary portal. If you’re using Firefox as your browser there’s a bab.la toolbar (link), and if you’re using IE there’s also a toolbar (link). These plug-ins also include links to Google and to Wikipedia. Cool.
I’m waiting for them to create an iPhone/iPod Touch app.
Even though I've got some links here on the site to various on-line dictionaries, usually in a one-for-one way, the online language portal bab.la offers 25 dictionaries in 15 languages, all freely available (e.g. German, French, Italian, Spanish, on and on).
The site also features exercises and other activities you can use to improve your knowledge of other languages. A fine, fine resource.
