Description
Make mispronunciations a thing of the past with the world’s most accurate and comprehensive pronunciation dictionary.
Unlike most other apps no synthetic pronunciation is used, with every word carefully researched, and professionally recorded.
"What I love is it uses a real human voice for audio playback, and has words for pronunciation that my dictionary apps don't even have for definitions."
"I feel like I now have a secret, powerful, linguistic advantage!"
Features:
■ Over 180,000 individually recorded words & phrases
■ Comprehensive dictionary including medical, legal, scientific, industry jargon and even current affairs and names
■ Accurate pronunciation of heteronyms (words which are spelled the same but pronounced differently depending on context) e.g, tear, dove, close, live, alternate, graduate, etc
■ Auto-complete and spelling suggestions
■ Pronunciation history
■ Favourites
■ Search definitions online
Note: An internet connection is required to download the audio and perform new searches, as the Howjsay database is too large to download and is continuously updated.

Ratings and Reviews
Excellent for English learners
With all the inconsistencies and regional variations in how words are spelt and pronounced, English language can be tricky even for advanced level speakers. And that’s when this app comes in handy. It’s a huge repository of words with British and American pronunciations(and sometimes French too) clearly articulated by the voice. I’ve been using this app for at least 5 years now and I must say I've become an even more confident English speaker. I use this app whenever I have the slightest doubt about the correct pronunciation of any words. Highly recommended!
A necessity for students of any age.
Every self-educated person should have this app.
We all pronounce words we read rather than hear.
The app has a clear speaking English accent and is _very_ comprehensive.
I was pronouncing "Aeschylus" incorrectly all my life until I heard it in this app.
Get it without hesitation!
Disappointed in change to subscription
I have been using this app in frequently for a number of years. And have found it to be excellent. However I will never ever pay a subscription for software. For the record I would be happy to pay a one off charge. I have deleted this app from my phone and not expect to receive any charges
