A very primitive, poorly written program.

Pros
Cons
To begin with an obvious flaw: the Hebrew in the dictionary reads from left to right, which is ridiculous. Another flaw: the program translates only one word at a time; it can not translate complete sentences, which some free online translation services can do. A very serious flaw is that one can neither enter a word to be translated, nor jump to a letter of the alphabet; one must actually scroll through the entire dictionary to find the word which one wants translated. Still another flaw: it pronounces the one-word definitions aloud, but the synthesized speech is difficult to understand; it is spoken too quickly, and vowels are pronounced too softly; and there is no way to adjust the rate at which the words are spoken. This program is so bad, it should be free.
Summary
It is good in some ways, but it just doesn't have enough words programmed into it!
