Pros and cons of Thai-English Dictionary (TL) app for iPhone and iPad

Thai-English Dictionary (TL) app good for

IF you learn Thai, not if you just want to parrot a few sentences, it is probably the best help one could find on Appstore. Why? A dictionary of course... But for every words many examples in rather long sentences. Clicking on the sentence it will be spoken... also the sentence is repeated with every Thai words separated from each other like in an English sentence, and each word in the sentence is highlight while spoken, before only in my dream... I learn Thai for 3 years now. Most thanks to the developers, you changed my life, I love you:-)
The best help to learn thaï. I wish we had the same in French. Far away from all the misunderstandings of Google translate. Helps you to understand the core of the language structure. Great work !
Very helpful tool for people who want to learn Thai. Vast offline dictionary, that can even give you the correct pitch by reading it out aloud to you. Thank you so much!
This is a superb dictionary and Thai language resource. The font size on the iPad is enormous though, huge!
Very well designed, organized, with lots of examples and useful!!! I wish you could add audio feature too so we can hear the example sentences or the words we are looking...
I wanted to express my gratitude to the creators of this application! The best dictionary I have seen.

Some bad moments

Seriously, it has transcriptions too??!! This app is fantastic!
1. Its a great app, but can be better if it provides pronunciations and bookmark function to produce quiz. It will be helpful. 2. The font type of input box didnt change when you change typeface in settings.
This is the best dictionary for this that I have come across on the iPhone. Tons of entries, usage examples, word breakdowns, good display of Thai versus transliteration and an intuitive interface. The only suggestion Id give is that sometimes the Thai font is sans serif but I would switch to all serif because the sans serif font can be tough for learners. Otherwise, love it and so very happy to have found it! Keep up the good work!
This is one of the best Thai-English dictionary apps available. The extensive vocabulary list has been extremely helpful in my first year of Thai language classes. In addition to traditional word lookups, there is also a categories section with words and phrases for specialized and every-day communications. Compound words, phrases, and sentences are broken down into their component parts. Plus, the full content is available even if you do not have an Internet connection.
Really helpful app for Thai learners. Kop khun maak-maak kha.
Thank you so much for this great dictionary - clear, with examples, with transcripts options, really great !
