Britannica® Launches Free Arabic-English Dictionary & English Learning App for Android

Britannica English includes a comprehensive Arabic-English dictionary with hundreds of thousands of usage examples and audio pronunciations. Bilingual translation is easily done from any screen of the app and supports single-word and full-sentence translation. 

Users can learn and practice English with Word of the Day, vocabulary games and flashcards in various topics including banking, health care, e-mail,  texting terms and more.  They can create personal word lists that include recent dictionary look-ups and saved favorite words, for ongoing practice. Registered users also benefit from saving their quiz mistakes automatically to their personal zone.

The new app was created in cooperation with Merriam-Webster, America’s leading dictionary publisher, a Britannica subsidiary.  “We are pleased to introduce this useful app designed specifically for Arabic speakers who want to master American English,” said Merriam-Webster president and publisher John M. Morse. “Britannica English provides our users with quality dictionary content and engaging features that will enhance the language learning experience.”

The new app is now available free to Android users (Android versions 4.0 and up).  For details or to download the app, please visit the Google Play store:
