Why electronic foreign language dictionaries & translators?
Handheld electronic translators — which can be used as a dictionary but which often have additional functions — are extremely useful tools for language learners. Such translators have some terrific advantages: They can contain a lot of information in a very compact format. Many contain audio files so users can hear correct pronunciations. Their digital format means that they are fully searchable, unlike a dictionary in a book form. And their small size make them convenient for taking along while traveling or going to class.
