Find Best Price at Amazon"My aged father-in-law from Colombia finally wore out another Franklin that he has used almost daily for almost 10 years."
"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."
