- Thanks for the German dictionaries. I don't think that they are useful
- in their present form.
-
- The improvements which could be made are:
-
- 1. The gender of the nouns must be included with the nouns.
-
- 2. Only use an initial capital when the word is a noun.
-
- 3. Where verbs are listed it's a good idea to indicate whether they are
- separable. I suggest adding a / character such as "an/ruen" instead
- of "anrufen".
-
- However, as a matter of general principle, for a German spell checker,
- EasiWriter's German dictionary takes some beating. As a dictionary for
- looking up the meaning of words I believe that a typical dictionary for
- use with the GCSE would be more use than a version held on computer.
-
- Sorry to pour cold water on it. Could you be pleasant to the
- originator about it because I'm sure he'll be proud of it.
