Nifty Words

Whether your mother tongue is English or German, if you move between those languages every day, this app is the only one you need. Incredibly fast and complete. One starts to type the word to be defined, without having to choose the language, and with the entry of the third character a list of likely words appears in both languages. The definitions are modern. Colloquial and slang expressions are included. There isn't another app in this field that is a match for the speed, ease of use, and bullet-proof reliability of Nifty Words.

If it did pronunciation it would be perfect. <br/><br/>This is probably what you're looking for.

Used it to decipher menus and to try and remember my limited German. Worked great! Found almost every word I was searching for, and loved the conjugation of verbs!

Love that it brings up words as you type, AND you can type a German or english word (no need to choose a language first like a different app I tried), AND it works without wifi or data. Perfect app!

Nothing is missing, even conjungations and past tense forms are provided. Just exzellent!

Spending 80 hours in Munich studying German. There is no single perfect dictionary, except the several inch thick paper variety. Of the 4 I've cycled through, this is the one I reliably go to &amp; find mostly correct translations quickly &amp; easily. It's a relatively small dictionary, but for everyday words is great. Biggest complaint is that the 'neuter' or das symbol looks too much like symbol for feminine, at least on iPhone screen - whether right or not, please make it more distinct! (I'd add a star if they'd fix that). Otherwise, very good for the price.

This thing is great and it's fast and offline! Much more extensive database than any other free dictionary. But two things need changing: need to indicate word gender (M F N - but I see that's in version 1.03 - can't wait for the update) and change the crappy icon (it just looks cheap compared with others). But these things are minor - get this app; a must for lovers of the German language. 

This app is awesome
