"So quickly, in fact, that had I not had some understanding of the language and been able to repeat things for my daughter, she likely wouldn't get much out of it in the pronunciation arena."
"This translator would be amazing if it would have the new technology."
"Whether they are bad or not, these words belong to the language and should be included in order to learn it, or at least to know that they are bad."
"My mistake."
"I purchased the unit specifically for the pronunciation of words in Spanish."
"I know enough Spanish to realize that some of the word have translations that make no sense, example: translate fall in love and you get Felony and a book cover and you get: I would like to book a tour."
"I took this with me to Cuba, and eventually stopped using it entirely because the translations were so unreliable, and it made me feel foolish."

"if you are buying this to learn talmud or to self learn other jewish books of law and philosophy written in hebrew it will not help."

"Not a big deal, but when I find a word I really want to learn, I like to add it to the word list. (A real shame when I read "Cincuenta sombras de Gray") However, the dictionary is very bad with adverbs, that end in "mente" I am rarely able to find a translation."
"Mine is also hard to hear--I have to hold it to my ear--but maybe my batteries are not strong."
"Received this product a few days ago and my daughter (who is a sophmore in High School) says it helps her learn Spanish. However, as long as my daughter is happy with the product and she is using it for her Spanish class; then I am happy and will not tell her how disappointed I am with it."
"Very helpful for my Spanish and English together."
"Well I would say this is the best translator I have tried.The good is it is fairly portable,easy to use,very extensive dictionary and conjugates verbs very well with many examples,also lots of popular fraises.It has many usefull features.The bad is sometimes the screen is hard to read there is no backlight,sometimes the buttons I push those letters dont show up on the screen,and sometimes the voice on the speaker sounds muffled and is hard to understand.Overall I like this translator,I payed about $50.00 for it and I think it is well worth it.I have taken two spanish classes and I think this would be good for both beginners and the advanced."
"I started using Franklin English-Spanish dictionaries over ten years ago and they have proved to be very beneficial in learning Spanish."
