In between. - I was using it for German. The vocabulary is
is small despite the ad claims. It only has the
root words.
It would be much better to have it do one language
well than 16 poorly. Obviously, it would have
better if it worked more than 2 days too.
Translates Adequately. Nothing Magical, But Still Quite Useful. [Posted on 2007-08-22]
As of this writing, I am now using this device in South Korea to help with a job I have as a teacher. When you key in an English word, it provides a Romanized phonetic version of the word for you to say. This device has gotten me out of a lot of binds and made life easier, but it is far from perfect. The Romanized English versions of the Korean words and phrases only serve to approximate Korean phonemes and the vocabulary is a bit limited. I would say that this device is probably better geared toward the weekend business traveler than someone, like me, who is here on a long-term stay.
Since I am fluent in Spanish, I tried translating from English to Spanish and I've found that this works effectively. Translating to French also works pretty well. I haven't tried the other languages yet. But, if works as well for those languages as it does for Korean, French, and Spanish, then I would have to say that this is an "OK" translator. I have seen much better ones out there, but for the price for how much this offers, this can't be beat.
Great service! [Posted on 2008-01-19]
Came in time for Christmas, best price around, and my mother loved the gift! Would definitely work with them again.
Lingo TR-1650 Travel Mate 16 Language Translator Review [Posted on 2008-03-03]
The translation is horrible. I am fluent in English and Spanish and out of 10 words, only 2 were correctly translated.
