Franklin Spanish/English Dictionary Bookman Card

The best part of it is being able to search words in english to spanish and the other way around very easily.
It does not tell you if the verb is a stem changer.
Overall,a good product for spanish students.

had this product for a few years now. It was great for writing and reading spanish papers, and was invaluable when I went to Spain. Works flawlessly with the other franklin products.

I have a Franklin's SCD-1870, and have purchased 3 dictionary bookman cards for it--German, Italian, and Spanish (speaking). Out of these 3 expansion cards, this Spanish card is the worst (the German one has the best features & tools)--other than that it's a limited version, all the available text is readable only in a tiny 3/8 inch by 1 3/4 inch rectangle, which leaves more than 2/3 of useable screen blank. In addition, even though I was initially excited about having another "speaking" dictionary card, this card's "speech" is not as clear as the English dictionary "speak" function on my SCD-1870.

Although I like the convenience of expansion cards, I can't help but feel rather disappointed/cheated by the Spanish (speaking) bookman card, as I'm made to forever scroll up and down every nanosecond...

It wasn't what I was looking for, but they accepted the return and gave me a refund with no hassle. Service was excellent.

Just wanted to let you all know that the quality of this bookman card is not the same as that of the built-in information that comes with the newer electronic dictionaries. First of all, all text is confined to a small rectangle that fills about a half of your screen. The rest of the screen remains blank and unused, resulting in a lot of scrolling with your arrow keys. Secondly, the pronunciation is not quite as great as that of the speaking english dictionary. The speech tends to be a bit unclear and riddled with static. Finally, the definitions are often rather brief and the conjugation leaves out some inflected forms.

However, this is the only speaking spanish dictionary that I am aware of. With all of its flaws it still remains as one of my most valuable tools in learning spanish.

Hello. I'm writing this to share my opinion with you. This product is great if you already own a Franklin Bookman. This allows you to translate from Spanish to English, English to Spanish,and has fun games and learnables to use. This summer my Spanish class is going to Mexico and I'm bringing this with me. When I bought this at another store it was quite expensive, but here at amazon.com the price is perfect. If I were you I'd take advanage of this great deal!

What's so great about it. Well if you already have a Franklin Bookman electronic devise you can use this and other cards in the Bookman . This means you don't have to buy to different products. It saves you money and is much more convenient. This is also great for me since I have trouble in Spanish class and now my teacher wants us to translate really hard sentences. Another plus is it's elecronic so you don't have to spend 10 minutes looking up a word you don't even know in a foreign language. I"m real glad they made this product. I think it's great and it comes with some great features.
