Best way to learn a new language!
I was looking for an app like that. Thank you so much, it’s really helpful. Now I can easily translate and learn French! I’m so excited... merciiiiii :)
Nice
Good educational app, really help me learn Germane.
Useful App
This app comes in handy when you’re looking for a certain phrase. I recommend it if you don’t like to type what you want in something like Google Translate.
Pretty neat
It's a cool app- I put in a request for a phrase translation and got a response back very quickly. The dictionary and phrase book are fleshed out and it's intuitive to use.
A simple and fun way to learn another languages!
Super simple interface that not only helped me find some great and helpful translation, but also got me lost in all the fun phrases others were translating! Can't wait to see where the app goes.
Super Useful
This app is great! I took German in HS and am trying to refresh my skills. PhraseMates is much more realistic than a lot of other language apps and resources out there. I like that it is simple to use, yet has a depth of original phrases. My only critique is that I don't like logging into Facebook. It could be clearer as to why that is recommended. Glad I found PhraseMates!
Like it
Im in high school taking Spanish. I already use the Spanish dictionary I thought I would try this app. The buttons are simple. Easy to do stuff. I asked for two translations by mistake and it was hard to delete one, had to go to profile. Overall, it's really nice. This version seems to do a better job of finding phrases and it's easier to ask for translations.
