Beautiful arrangement, comprehensive work. Annoyance: clicking on the pronunciation symbol beside a word, phrase or sentence may or may not produce the pronunciation. Unpredictable as to when you'll be successful.

This is the best French-English dictionary available for the iPhone that includes verb conjugations. The Larousse Unabridged is better in terms of the size of the vocabulary, but it doesn't have conjugations for the verbs.

I bought this app from reading reviews of the "Harrap's" dictionary online, thinking it would have much more content than the Larousse French-English Dictionary (priced much less than the Harrap's). I already have that dictionary. The content is almost identical, however the Harrap's is three times the cost. There is no point in buying this if you already have the Larousse French-English dictionary. There is bits of extra content (as displayed, the Harrap's explains the French suffix "-able"), but not nearly enough to justify the price. This is when I wished I could have flipped through this "app," like a book in a bookstore, before buying it! I also wish I could return it, as it is substantially a duplicate of what I already have.
