the worst. why? 1. no instant translating hilighted word 2. when you click the icon, the search bar shows up, but when you push enter, BAM, a whole new tab appears from nowhere, and you have to scroll to search for the many meanings and translations of the word, which is again, time consuming and distracting. i just want something simple, just click and show me the word i need to know, i don't want to know the whole thesaurus, autist. 3. no options or settings? like, it's by design an unfixable, uncustomizable, unsufferable program? 4. i'm shocked knowing how many people rated this 5*, wel...

Cambridge Dictionary is without a doubt the BEST dictionary for a learner of English. I have been using it for decades and every time it provides me the accurate definition that I am looking for. In English the meaning of a word could change according to the situation that you are using it in. Cambridge dictionary excels at providing the most accurate, real life definition that the reader wants . In a nut shell the Cambridge dictionary is a life saver.
