This is a fast way to build vocabulary and language facility. Sometimes I feel pride and other times I feel really humbled, but always it is fun and a great learning process. I’m hooked. It is easy to ask Siri to “Define WORD”. I learned new words or new meanings of old words every day. It contributes to my goal of lifelong learning.
I am studious of the Bible. This will definitely enhance my spiritualality as my vocabulary grows in time. It works pretty well with Voice Over too, which is wonderful. I also love that you can search for a particular synonym and get it’s definition(s), and have the option to save as a favorite. In my personal opinion, I feel this app is great for those of us who have difficulty recalling specific words to mind. And finally I’d like to add, another reason why I love this app is because for the visually impaired or deaf/blind smartphone users, there are not a lot of user-friendly games to download that can be used with Voice Over. NOW I have one! Thanks! This app is educational, easy to use and fun! To the developer, I’d like to express my sincere gratitude. CC USA
Love this app! It is said how important it is to keep the brain stimulated as you get older. I’m retired and am no longer getting the many challenges I got while working. This tool keeps my brain active.
Playing this initially I thought it would become a big bore but it isn’t. I’ve found myself having to set a timer otherwise I get caught up playing this game longer than I planned.
I love this app as it helps me learn new meanings in a fun way. One suggestion if I can make is would be more useful if definitions are given upon clicking each word.
What an incredible way to keep us slackers on our toes. I love it! Vocabulary is so important when dealing with the more intelligent in society, like my brother. He has been tested at genius level, despite a 15 year bout with drugs and alcohol.
This is a fabulous app for learning and reviewing vocabulary. It focuses on finding synonyms, specifically by recalling the meaning and layers of meaning connected to the roots of individual word. It’s efficiently organized; a quick and fun way to review vocabulary.
This is one of my favorite apps. I know that sounds lame; however, I write a lot and when you are looking for another way to say something it’s awesome.
I love the app! It’s great that it Tahoe’s weather the word is a noun/verb/adverb/ or adjective. But it would be great if I could click on the word/s and it says the correct way to pronounce it, as well as the meaning to the words
This app is a five-star tool for reviewing English adjectives. If you can stand the spurious “your phone memory is full” popup add. I can’t. Just charge for the game/exercise ad-free version. Please!
I am fairly literate and have a love for the English language and the Latin root words that much of it stems from. This game contains questions from the simplistic to the difficult with lots to learn while having fun. I use it both to relax and to enliven my mood. If you like to learn new vocabulary words, this game won't disappoint!
A fun way to exercise your "grey cells." Not only challenging what comes to mind first, but makes you think about additional ways to use that word in order to find the right answer.
There's only one flaw: there's no end- no way to "win". It would be much better if there was. It gives you a word, then you choose the best match, you get points. That's it. It just goes on and on and on. I even tried making incorrect choices, hoping that I would lose, so I knew the rules i.e. 5 wrong answers = game over. Nope. It's endless.
I love words, and have a good memory for roots and meanings. This game contains words from both ends of the spectrum; simple to challenging. I have found it to be an enjoyable way to spend time, and I was surprised at how often I was stopped and had to dig deep for an answer.
This app is so much fun. I enjoy challenging myself, looking forward to the next word--and hoping/believing that it won't be the word to trip me up! It's a light, easy little game.
Simple game with some not-simple words, making it ideal for anyone who wants to learn new words without flash cards. However, it doesn't includes many words; you can get through the entire game in about 15 minutes.
I find this quiz to be great fun and a clever way to squeeze in new vocabulary. However, because some of the words are new or unfamiliar I would like to see a pronunciation guide and a sound file for each word.
I love word games. This is entertaining & can be played for any length of time. I'd like to save the words I miss and revisit them. Needs update as can slow down phone. I definitely recommend it!
I love this app. Excellent learning tool and adjusts to challenge the user at their level. So it adapts to the user without being too easy or overly hard.
Really a handy app to develop our vocabulary!! Learn new words and play some free games to test yourself!! I'm certain that this app is really helpful!
I am trying to increase my vocabulary, so very happy this app exists! Thanks! I think It would be helpful to mark and then repeat words I got wrong until I memorize the correct synonym.
This all is great, but it would be cool if we could define the words without having to end the game. I hope you consider this, because the app is really good despite that.
This app is very helpful for your English. It works as an dictionary and more Big words for SAT are in here...u should download it and start to build up yr copious vocabularies.
this would be a great teaching game for on line ESL but you have to go with simplier words and do the synonym match. You could even do one with antonyms for TEACHING mid grade ESL to foreign students.
