Get freedom from your phone’s obvious limitations. Use EC Dictionary 英漢字典, made by CSST（Cloud Smart Share Technology）, a Education app on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, and level up your experience.
This app comes across as a straightforward, no-nonsense English–Chinese dictionary that just works, especially if it is run on a PC with BlueStacks for a bigger view. It has a really large wordbase, roughly two hundred thousand entries, so it does not feel like words run out when someone is studying for school tests. Entries show both Simplified and Traditional Chinese, give parts of speech, offer pronunciations and example sentences, and there are lots of the usual TOEFL and IELTS study words mixed in. Looking something up is quick and the interface stays uncluttered, which is a relief when wanting to check a word fast.
It is built to be used offline, so there is no waiting for a network to pop up a simple translation. There are also handy tools for memorizing vocabulary and a few extra translation options for other languages, so it is not limited to just straight lookups. The mobile layout adapts well when used on a tablet, and on a PC via BlueStacks the layout feels roomy and easier to read. It is free to grab and have on hand, so it makes a nice backup to heavier study apps or paper dictionaries, especially for someone who wants clear examples and pronunciation without fuss.
Switch to BlueStacks and make the most of your apps on your PC or Mac.
