4.0 out of 5 stars Clever little gidget, good for travelling, July 6, 2002

This review is from: Franklin TWE-500109HSMP 5 Language Western European Translator Springboard Module (Office Product)
This is a clever and convenient thing to carry around, and has turned out to be useful for travelling. Although it is mostly word-oriented, it does have some phrases, such as 'How much does that cost?'

It doesn't have anywhere near the vocabulary of a dedicated single-language dictionary, so it is most useful for casual use. For example, I have a software version of the Collins German-English dictionary that has quite a large vocabulary and I use it quite often instead of carrying a thick printed dictionary.

But for casual use, reading menus, deciphering signs, and asking the hotel staff for help with leaky faucets, the Franklin device is perfect.
