5.0 out of 5 stars Great Learning Tool, November 9, 2002
i went actually went to germany and this little translator did the trick! it was great to be able to communitcate with so many people with just the press of a button! It has so many features, including the actual sound of the words. If you're a traveler or even a student of german, this is something you HAVE to have!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Imagine language without plurals, December 19, 2005
ECTACO English <-> German Language Teacher - EGm600T

This electronic dictionary may have almost a half million entries but you better be prepared for a world with just one of each item. This dictionary does not include the plural form of nouns in either language. Because of this huge shortcoming, I wouldn't pay 1/10 the price for this model or any other electronic dictionary that doesn't include the plural form. Imagine not being able to know that the plural of child is children or the plural of die Zeitung (newspaper) is die Zeitungen. I'm also less than happy that this fact isn't pointed in the product description. When I contacted the folks at Ectaco, they referred to it as an option. I don't agree. It is an essential feature that has been left out and serverely limits the usefulness of the product.

My product was returned the next business day.
