I bought this device before I joined my schoolarship in the uinted States. it is perfect,for Arabic speakers who seek help in english terminology of their feild of study. It is not designed for English speakers wishing to learn Arabic. It has many advantages and features. My daughters use the game sections which is highly enriching in English vocabulary for a 5 year old. the voice feature was quite helpful in learning the proper pronuncitation of the words. If I couldn't find a word in the Mawrid I would easily switch to Merriam Webster with a press of a button. Very easy to use and has more in it that I haven't yet explored. It is also benefecial for Arab tourists visiting an English speaking country or France. I'm totally satisfied with it and would have even given it a 6 star!

I bought this product for my wife who wanted to learn how to speak arabic, but later found out that the dictionary only pronounces english words with a heavy accent ! don't get me wrong , this product is perfect for arabic speakers who are looking for a practical , precise 2 way dictionary , the included french dictionary is also a plus but i would have been much happier with the product if the speaking feauture included arabic as well as english .

very good dictionary, the english to arabic part is better, the only down side, is that it does'nt have a back light so in a dark room you wont be able to see it clearly..
