I'm downgrading my rating of this app. it keeps giving error messages. I paid for this app. After the uninstall, it didn't recognize that I already paid for it and was asking me to pay again! What! [Excellent app. It opened my eyes and ears to correct pronunciation of words I was mispronouncing before. There are pronunciations for British, American, as well as French, etc. It is also very handy that there is definition available.]

The first Howjsay was better...it had a hyperlink to a dictionary to see the definition. Wish you would again include. I read a great deal. Whenever I came across a word I didn't recognize, I would 'look it up'...so I have a very large written vocabulary, but found myself vocally changing the perfect adjective for a more common one, since I was not positive as to pronunciation. Now I am. Thank you...your product is very useful. Carol

People are leaving reviews stating that the app does not show a definition of the word, you want pronounced! This is not correct! Once the word is pronounced, press on the word, options will then pop up, press on define, and you will be taken to the definition of the word. Great app.
