Latest reviews of British English Words for Native American English Speakers app for iPhone and iPad
It just has a limited list of words. It is not a dictionary at all. Dot waste your money
This would be exactly what I was looking for (a list of British words with their corresponding American terms) except for one major issue. You cant type in an American word, and have the British word pop up. NO! This app only works for someone British typing in a word to get the American equivalent. Im American. So it does me no good. A simple upgrade would fix this. Then it would be a marvelous simple dictionary.
