Paragon Software has already announced PONS dictionaries for Apple’s iPhone and now they’ve unveiled yet another dictionary for the platform - Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition.
Like the PONS series, the “most authoritative and comprehensive American English dictionary” is also powered by Paragon’s advanced SlovoEd engine, featuring an easy-to-use, single-click access to word definitions. Then there’s the “History” feature which shows the last 15 translated words, and the “Cross-Lookup” for easy check of language comprehension.
Merriam-Webster’s database contains 225,000 entries, including more than 10,000 new words and definitions. The application is now available on the AppStore for $24.99 (19,99 EUR).
