不能正常发音
因为朗文有真人发音才买的,但是一点击例句发音的小喇叭,软件就卡了!不知道为什么
词典内容真心简单易懂 实用的很
因为之前用过老版的 突然换到新版界面图片少了 感觉不如之前的那版色彩艳丽讨喜 内心是十分抵触的 但用久了才觉得新版的真心不错 毕竟词典颜色太多了不利于寻找重点 也不利于专心记忆 从色彩学的角度来说反而喧宾夺主 浪费了本该记忆词条的精力 而且新版较旧版而言确实占内存小了很多 成功瘦身了 能想到找朗文当代高阶词典的人在乎的应该都是内容而不是漫画般的视觉享受 现在想来之前只因界面美观问题给了差评 还是很委屈新版朗文词典的 怪只怪之前的版本做的太美观艳丽了 其实可以搞两个版本让用户自己选择的 内存够的土豪 追求VIP式的体验 可以给他旧版的 追求简洁实用的学者就可以给他新版的 众口难调 我不懂软件开发可能遇到的困难 但我想如果有可能 这可能也算个办法 ^•^
阅读词典是学习外语的一个好习惯,从词典的解释和详尽释例中都能学到语言地道的用法
同时能够从例句中感受到英美到文化,因此建议开发人员能够增加词典的翻页功能,能夠体会读词典犹如读文化经典的感觉
