How To Translate English To Spanish On Iphone

Learning Spanish is popular for high school and college students in the U.S. After all, that's the language you need if you vacation in Mexico (or Spain). However, for most vacations, a good old fashioned phrasebook or cross-language dictionary does the trick. You don't need to buy physical copies anymore. There are tons of apps that do it for you and you keep your smartphone on you all of the time anyway. Most translation apps, dictionary apps, and phrasebook apps are quite easy to use and come with the most common words and phrases for travel or a short stay. However, we do recommend you learn the whole language if you intend on going back frequently. Spanish is a beautiful language, after all. Here are the best Spanish to English dictionaries for Android!

Dict.cc is a multilingual dictionary app. It can translate between a variety of languages, including Spanish, English, German, Italian, Russian, and French along with about a dozen others. The app works like a basic dictionary. You look up a word in one language. It tells you the definition and the pronunciation and spelling of the same word in other languages. The UI is a little old looking. However, that's a very small complaint and it's our only one. This one is cheap and it rocks.

Dictionary Linguee

Price: Free

Dictionary Linguee is another multilingual dictionary with support for a variety of languages. That includes Spanish, English, French, German, and many others. You can look up words for any of the languages and get the words in any other language it supports. The app also features a clean, simple UI, a translation feature, an offline mode, example sentences, punctuation, and more. There really isn't anything wrong with this one aside from the occasional preference. Between this and Dict.cc, you can get all of the information you could possibly need.

English Spanish Dictionary

Price: Free

English Spanish Dictionary is a simple, free Spanish to English dictionary. This one features the basics. That includes Spanish to English and English to Spanish definitions and translations. Additionally, the app includes synonyms, antonyms, auto suggestions, various search types, word games, pronunciations, and it works offline. There isn't a lot wrong with it in terms of usability or bugs. This is a perfectly serviceable Spanish to English dictionary. It is free with advertising support. We would've liked a way to remove the ads, but it is what it is.

Google Play Books

Price: Free / Book costs vary

You don't need physical phrasebooks or dictionaries with a smartphone. However, you can still purchase old school phrasebooks and dictionaries from ebook services like Google Play Books, Amazon Kindle, etc. They give you all of the benefits of an actual phrasebook or multilingual dictionary but without the hassle that comes with carrying around paper all day. Most ebook providers have such books available in their store. We recommend Google Play Books because it's easy and it's linked directly to your existing Google account already. Plus, it looks nice.

Google Translate

Price: Free

Google Translate is probably the best for this sort of thing. It translates over 100 different languages and it includes definitions and pronunciations. Additionally, the app lets you translate stuff through your phone's camera. It even includes a live conversation translator function. You and another person speak into it and it translates the conversation in real time. We thought that was neat. The app is also clean, simple, and free. This is usually the one we recommend first. Microsoft Translator is an excellent second choice if you don't like this one.

Learn Spanish Offline is a perfectly serviceable phrasebook app. It features over 2,000 common sentences, phrases, and words. The app also includes pronunciation, a simple interface, and complete offline support. It doesn't function overly well as a dictionary app. We recommend Dictionary Linguee or Dict.cc for that. However, this works well for the occasional vacationer or business person on a trip. It's free with ads or you can pay $1.99 for the premium version.

SpanishDict Translator

Price: Free / $2.99

SpanishDict Translator is probably the best Spanish to English dictionary on the list for just those two languages. The app features a solid, simple user interface, conjugations, pronunciations, regional word usage, auto suggestions, a translation function, and even a word of the day. There is very little wrong with this app in terms of usability or stability. We didn't see one crash or issue at all, actually. This should do the trick for most people. Those who need more languages can try Dictionary Linguee, Dict.cc, or Reverso. Those who just need Spanish and don't want Google Translate should use this one first.

Spanish-English

Price: Free / $1.99

Spanish – English is a dictionary app and phrasebook. It features the basics for both categories, including a ton of words, phrases, and vocabulary for tourists and visitors. The app also includes a translator, some word games for memorization purposes, a listening test, a writing test, and more. This is actually a decent app for Spanish learners as well as travelers. We recommend pairing this with a language learning app to actually learn Spanish. However, it works perfectly fine as a standalone phrasebook and dictionary app. The UI is a little rough, though.
