zoology
My 9 yr old granddaughter says she wants to be a zoologist when she grows up, and I thought she would like to watch the 'Wildlife Docs' on tv.
But first I decided to get a definition of zoology. Good thing, cause it sure doesn't mean veterinarian! It was so easy to look the word and definition up using this app. Thanx!
Good, but…
It is good as I can look up the meaning of the word. Oh, and I rated 3 star instead of 5 stars because (I hope this is a glitch) when I look up a lot of words, it restarts my iPad! It ruins the app so much I had to remove 2 stars! Also why they have ad? I don't like ads. At least fix the glitch that restarts my iPad, please.
Excellent!
This is an excellent dictionary/app! Very thorough definitions, origins, pronunciations, and other helpful features. A very useful, reliable resource. Alphabetical index is fantastic. Can't wait until they add the additional 5,000 new entries- very helpful for Scrabble players.
