Cantonese-English dictionary

Submitted by NoiseFree on Tue, 2008-01-29 01:29. Windows Mobile Pocket PC

I'm setting out for China again next week.
I was there last summer and got to try out my newly purchased HNHSoft
Cantonese-English dictionary with my Toshiba e830 PPC.

I would say I had mixed results.

I was able to make use of the Eng-Cantonese translations but when it came time to translate from Cantonese to English we had many problems.

First off, it is quite difficult to navigate through the Chinese characters to key in your word.

Secondly, more often than not my friend just couldn't find the Chinese words she was looking for. That was quite disappointing.

Has the size of the Cantonese dictionary increased since last summer?
Is it any easier to key in Cantonese characters now?

TIA

Hi, thanks for your business and feedback. The English-Cantonese talking phrase book has not upgraded since last summer, but we will consider your suggestions when we release the next version. Thanks.

By your reply I see that I have not explained myself properly.

I purchased both the Catonese-English Talking Phrase Book and the Chinese-English dictionary.

It was my mistake. I am referring to the dictionary.
Has the dictionary improved since last summer?
Has the size of the Chinese vocabulary increased?
Has the input of Chinese characters improved? It was very difficult to navigate the characters to input them.

Thank you.

There is no major upgrade to the dictionary since last summer. What problem did you have when you input Chinese? The program has a built-in pinyin input method.
