Description
Make mispronunciations a thing of the past with the world’s most accurate and comprehensive pronunciation dictionary.
Unlike most other apps no synthetic pronunciation is used, with every word carefully researched, and professionally recorded.
"What I love is it uses a real human voice for audio playback, and has words for pronunciation that my dictionary apps don't even have for definitions."
"I feel like I now have a secret, powerful, linguistic advantage!"
Features:
■ Over 180,000 individually recorded words & phrases
■ Comprehensive dictionary including medical, legal, scientific, industry jargon and even current affairs and names
■ Accurate pronunciation of heteronyms (words which are spelled the same but pronounced differently depending on context) e.g, tear, dove, close, live, alternate, graduate, etc
■ Auto-complete and spelling suggestions
■ Pronunciation history
■ Favourites
■ Search definitions online
Note: An internet connection is required to download the audio and perform new searches, as the Howjsay database is too large to download and is continuously updated.

Outstanding
Outstanding App. Extremely handy and is a constant companion/teacher of pronunciation. I have significantly benefitted from it. Size of one’s vocabulary does not automatically translate into its usage. It is the confidence in pronunciation that paves the way for an expanded usage. Howjsay is a wonderful aid that translates knowledge to application.

Best reference for pronunciations.
Gives me pronunciations for almost anything I throw at it… medical, engineering, chemical, proper nouns, places…anything.
Just wish it also provided them in IPA.
