Re: Spanish - English dictionary?

2024-05-25 Thread William Outman
If you are using an iPhone, there is the Translate app. I haven’t used it much, though.  There is also a translate feature in Word, one of the power tips that was posted recently.  I am sure Siri and Google Assistant, as well as some of the AI programs could be used as well. Bill Outman Sent from my iPhoneOn May 6, 2024, at 4:26 PM, R Van Lant  wrote:







Hi,

Spanish - English dictionary?

2024-05-06 Thread R Van Lant
Hi,
When I took Spanish in high school, I had enough vision to use a hard copy 
Spanish-English dictionary to look up words, e.g., how do you say "yesterday" 
in Spanish.  What is the modern and accessible way to do this?  Is there an app 
I could use when I'm trying to come up with the word translation?

I'm glad you came up with a workable solution. Would you mind indulging me and 
adding corp to your pronunciation dictionary with corpe as its substituted

for you to check than for me to change my synth to test it. Thanks.

Running iOS 17.4.1 on an SE2022 phone, and I can't get pronunciations to say, "

I've tried inputting both words into the Add field and both words into the

Any ideas on how I can get this accomplished?  All input is greatly

Hi Amy,

My friends and I use an app called "Word Checker." It is very accessible. Also, 
some time ago there was an update, and it made the app harder to use. I wrote 
to the developer, and it got fixed. I was impressed.

Take care and have fun!

saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.
Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.
In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.
This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.
To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up 
is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want it 
pronounced.
When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of changes 
and your new change will be part of the list.

Hope this helps.

Subject: the power of Voiceover dictionary

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.
On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:
Put in  in the phrase box

of 4 bars  signal strength
Replacement bars
now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.
I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this
In the first box I put
Status bar item
 Replacement just put in a space.

I remember the Talks days well the user’s group and blindsea site.

There are a couple of things I would say, when selecting the string you want to 
replace it’s often useful to use the Copy Last Spoken output to insert as your 
string, saves some typing!

I wish under verbosity you could configure which apps and screen areas hints 
are spoken in.

The dictionary is useful though I remember the Calendar in Symbian and creating 
strings and replacements to have UK dates spoken more correctly.

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.



I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.

Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to 
Speech and double tap.

In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.

This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.

To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes 
up is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want 
it pronounced.

When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of 
changes and your new change will be part of the list.



Hope this helps.

  I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him

does and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done 
with the Voiceover dictionary.

  On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

  Put in  in the phrase box



  of 4 bars  signal strength

  Replacement bars

  now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

  I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

  In the first box I put

  Status bar item

   Replacement just put in a space.

I managed to get it to stop saying “Double tap to open” on the Home Page.  

 

I can’t seem to locate an option for the Status Bar.  I want to stop VO from 
saying “Not Charging, when checking the battery status.  I only want to know 
for sure that it is charging when I plug it in.

Getting  rid of the words “Status bar item would be nice, too.”

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.

In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.

This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.

To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up 
is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want it 
pronounced.

When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of changes 
and your new change will be part of the list.

 

Hope this helps.

I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.

On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

Put in  in the phrase box

 

of 4 bars  signal strength  

Replacement bars 

now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

In the first box I put 

Status bar item 

 Replacement just put in a space.

Re: the power of Voiceover dictionary

2022-01-02 Thread Chris Chaffin

In settings, just go to accessibility / Voice Over, then swipe down to Speech 
and double tap.
In there, swipe to pronunciation, and double tap.
This screen will contain a list of any pronunciation changes you have 
previously made, and any new ones will be added to this list.
To make a new change, just double tap the add button. The screen that comes up 
is where you enter the current word or phrase, and the new way you want it 
pronounced.
When done, just double tap on the back button to go back to the list of changes 
and your new change will be part of the list.

Hope this helps.

Chris

  I was talking to a friend Stephen Giggar some of you might remember him from 
the talks days.  He said you might be able to customize what voice over does 
and doesn't speak.   I'm posting this example to show what can be done with the 
Voiceover dictionary.

  On the Status bar it says cellular 3 of 3 bars signal strength I wanted to 
change this so I did this:

  Put in  in the phrase box

   

  of 4 bars  signal strength  

  Replacement bars 

  now when swiping across the status bar it says cellular 2 bars.

  I also didn’t want Status bar item spoken so I did this

  In the first box I put 

  Status bar item 

   Replacement just put in a space.

This is interesting.  Where did you find the dictionary in order to do this?  I

Can you please describe the steps you used?

Hi Dulce,

There's one built into your ipHone. Go to Settings/General/Dictionaries, and 
select the Italian/English dictionary. To look up a word, select it and choose 
Look Up from the menu that appears. To select a word, put the insertion point

Lookup the Next Word In iPhone Dictionary?

2020-09-10 Thread Fazil
Hi, list.

I have iPhone8 and the latest iOS version.

I used iPhone-Dictionary for the first-time just by chance.

I was totally taken aback when Voiceover gave me the dictionaries of all the
languages on my Rotor.

I, however, was disappointed when Voiceover did not display the definitions
of the next word.

It kept displaying the previous word.

Can we lookup just one word in a document?

If not, how can I see the meanings of the subsequent words?

Thanks!

good morning,
Related to the pronunciation dictionary: I would love to be able to stop vo 
from interpreting, what it sees as, acronyms. S.T., for example, always being 
read as “street“. I don’t have either time or inclination to do each one

Vicki,

 

I don't know what dictionary you're talking about but if you want to create 
custom pronunciations for Voiceover to use, go to Settings, General, 
Accessibility, Speech, and Pronunciations to add words and their pronunciations 
you want Voiceover to use.

dictionary

2017-11-02 Thread Vicki W.
Can someone please tell me where to change the pronunciation of words in the 
dictionary?

I looked in dictionary and all I found was the possible dictionaries to turn on 
and off. I've done this before but can't find where I did it.
 Thank you.

Pronunciation dictionary question

2017-02-07 Thread Rajmund
Hi there,
Rather than adding  all these people to my contacts, I was thinking of adding 
entire, or parts of phone numbers to my pronunciation dictionary. 
Unfortunately, I'm failing. Can I truly not add a number string, and modify it 
with standard alphabetical letters? So like 123-456-7890, can I truly not 
replace it with something like the random example? This would then mean instead 
of hearing his number all the time, I could just hear message from random 
example. Again, I don't wish to add people to my contacts, but being in an 
iMessage group, with like 20 numbers, it would be nice to remember names.
Thanks for any pointers.

I can verify, that Ava, I think that's how you pronounce the name of the voice, 
anyway, she cannot pronounce status correctly all the time. I try to correct 
it, and it would not do so. Sometimes it will say it correctly, and sometimes 
it won't.

Hi!
I can't confirm on this one but I'm going to try it out.
One thing I know for sure is if I enter a word, let's say
  "iphone" and enter "the best phone in the world" as replacement,
  it will be correctly spoken out.

I Andy,
Don't know if this helps: put your rotor into words, choose your word, double 
tap and hold, then put your finger on the very bottom right of the screen click 
right and eventually you should hear "define". this is using the on-board 
dictionary. with my set up, I have chosen the Oxford dictionary. further, I 
have chosen an Italian dictionary and it works in Italian for me too!

hope this helps, Sandy

If folks want to write to dictionary.com to inform them of the problem of no 
longer being able to use the app with VoiceOver, their email address is: 
supp...@dictionary.zendesk.com

The Oxford English dictionary link is nice, but you have to listen to the word 
"link" throughout the definition. That was the beauty of dictionary.com app, 
the definitions read great but you could still double tap on a word to get the 
cross reference to that words meaning.

There are Arabic dictionaries which will give you the meanings of words in 
English or other languages and the other way around.  But I have not seen 
Arabic dictionaries which will give you the derivatives from the root word.  
You can type Arabic by adding an Arabic keyboard.  Go to

RE: Flecks Dictionary import from FleksyVO

2016-01-19 Thread Alan Lemly
Traci,

I could find no mention of dictionary importing under the dictionary button
which is found under the More topline menu button on the Fleksy Keyboard app
main page. I know importing used to be possible with the original
Fleksy/Fleksy VO app.

When you execute the Dictionary button under the More option, you're
presented with a list of words in the current dictionary. There is an edit
button at the upper right of this page which when executed places the
standard delete icon next to all the words so you can remove the ones you
wish. There is also a text box just below the topline menu for inputting new
words via the add button to the right of this box. However, there is no
import button that I could find.

You might right the developers at supp...@fleksy.com to ask if importing an
older Fleksy dictionary is possible.

Good luck.

Since Fleksy is a popular topic for the moment, I thought I'd ask about the
Fleksy dictionary.  Is it still possible to import our dictionary settings
from FleksyVO into native Fleksy?  I was a heavy FleksyVO user, so my
dictionary is heavily populated.  :)

Also, thank you for the dropbox link to the tutorial.  I had greater success
typing with native Fleksy this time round.  I really appreciate that I can
get into the edit field & read with VoiceOver.

Re: Merriam-Webster Dictionary Is Now Having Ads

2015-09-18 Thread Michael Feir
Hello. I use one called Wordweb. It works quite well with Voiceover. I
believe it was a free app but I've had it for ages and can't remember
for certain. I have it for the computer as well. As soon as I heard it
was available as an app, I grabbed it. You can navigate very easily
using the rotor to move between headings. Definitions are pretty good
and fine for most circumstances. You can also get the Chambers
Dictionary and thesaurus apps for $8 each and use them as offline
references in conjunction with the Wordweb app.

Voice Dream Writer also comes with built-in dictionary and thesaurus.
Haven't really dug into that app yet but I keep hearing very good
things about it. Hope that helps you out.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary Is Now Having Ads

2015-09-18 Thread eileen . misrahi
Hello List,

Just updated the latest version of Merriam-Webster Dictionary app on my iPhone 
6 running 8.4 1. Although the app is VO accessible, there are now ads that are 
interspersed when viewing the content. I searched for a simple word and 
received an ad for baseball tickets and a massage. Has anyone else use this app 
and was able to get rid of these nagging pests? I was looking for a settings 
button, but none was seen. Is there a settings button that I overlooked? If 
there's not a way to opt out of receiving these ads, is anyone using a 
dictionary app that is VO compatible  and does not include ads? 

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,
Eileen

While it was Richard Petty who recommended it, I did a little research
because of Mark's question about why it costs so much.
The hard cover print edition is $41.83 on Amazon.
Its shipping weight is 7.5 pounds.
It is 2112 pages.
This app says it contains everything that is in the print edition.
About 20 years ago, Oxford English Dictionary 2nd edition that was 21
print volumes, was about $900 in print, became available for $130 on a CD
Rom.
Granted the OED 2nd edition had over six hundred thousand words, the cost
of dictionaries have dropped dramatically.
What you are paying for is the linguistic expertees that goes into the
research on the history and usage of the words.
According to Mr. Petty, the American Heritage app is quite accessible with
VoiceOver.

Just my two cents worth.
Richard

Ha!  I forgot about that option.  I think it does come with the OS.  I just 
took a look at it.  On my system there is the Apple dictionary and the American 
Oxford English Dictionary available.  I don't remember if both were available 
by default, or if I had to download one of them.

 Mary, 
 
 The interesting thing about the Concise Oxford dictionary is that you can 
 manage to get the definition.  Once you have typed in a word the definition 
 is displayed on the screen.  Fine for sighted people, not so good for 
 VoiceOver users as I said.  However, there is a more button.  If you press 
 that and then select Share, then you can select message or mail and the 
 definition will be readable in that app.  Once you have read it, then you 
 cancel out and return to the dictionary.  Or, instead of choosing one of 
 those apps, you could select copy and then paste the definition into notes 
 or whatever.  Yeah I know, a pain to go through, especially for a short 
 definition.
 
 Oh yes, the cost for the app was about 12 or 13 dollars.

2015-08-03 Thread 'Sandratomkins' via VIPhone
Hi,

So long as I can use the edit function, I make use of the onboard 
dictionary, it is very good and VO friendly. I also have an Italian dictionary 
option, also good! I think I am remembering aright, this came with the ios and 
didn't cost anything extra.

 Mary, 
 
 The interesting thing about the Concise Oxford dictionary is that you can 
 manage to get the definition.  Once you have typed in a word the definition 
 is displayed on the screen.  Fine for sighted people, not so good for 
 VoiceOver users as I said.  However, there is a more button.  If you press 
 that and then select Share, then you can select message or mail and the 
 definition will be readable in that app.  Once you have read it, then you 
 cancel out and return to the dictionary.  Or, instead of choosing one of 
 those apps, you could select copy and then paste the definition into notes or 
 whatever.  Yeah I know, a pain to go through, especially for a short 
 definition.
 
 Oh yes, the cost for the app was about 12 or 13 dollars.

 While it was Richard Petty who recommended it, I did a little research 
 because of Mark's question about why it costs so much.
 The hard cover print edition is $41.83 on Amazon.
 Its shipping weight is 7.5 pounds.
 It is 2112 pages.
 This app says it contains everything that is in the print edition.
 About 20 years ago, Oxford English Dictionary 2nd edition that was 21 
 print volumes, was about $900 in print, became available for $130 on a CD 
 Rom.
 Granted the OED 2nd edition had over six hundred thousand words, the cost 
 of dictionaries have dropped dramatically.
 What you are paying for is the linguistic expertees that goes into the 
 research on the history and usage of the words.
 According to Mr. Petty, the American Heritage app is quite accessible with 
 VoiceOver.
 
 Just my two cents worth.

Hi David,
Well, I think I rather pay more for it fully accessible dictionary then do that 
nonsense that you have to go through with the oxford concise. Perhaps some 
emails to the developers will result in a voiceover friendly change for a new 
version. Maybe get the folks at Apple is interested.

RE: Dictionary app, American heritage 5th edition

2015-08-01 Thread Richard Turner
There is the Oxford Dictionary Quick Search that requires an internet 
connection that is pretty accessible and is free.  It has ads and if the 
definition is really long you can't do the usual three finger swipe up to 
scroll through.
You can get beyond that by flicking right, but the visual definition on the 
screen doesn't change, but VoiceOver does read stuff not visible on the screen.
There doesn't seem to be a share option with that one.

I still like the dictionary.com app and paying a little to get rid of ads etc.

If there was a full OED option that was accessible, I'd be really tempted.

I've not found anything.

Richard, your points are ones we should all keep in mind. Over the last
20 years, access to information of all kinds has become easier and a lot
cheaper, not to mention the volume of information has gone up
tremendously.
During the KNFB Reader launch, when people were proclaiming $100 to be
completely outrageous, someone posted a list of the various scanning/text
recognition systems through the years, from the first Kurzweil reader
that was about the size of a washing machine and cost maybe $30,000, to
the various PC-based solutions costing a couple thousand, and now, to the
current app that costs $100 and can work better than any previous unit on
a lowly pocket-sized iPod touch. We now have in a $400 package that
fits in a pocket a much faster and more accurate solution than just a few
years ago. This trend will only continue!
I wish I had that tweet containing the various years and prices; it
really made the point quite well.

To put it another way... you now
have a dictionary, probably a full library, in your pocket. fifteen or
twenty years ago you'd be scanning print versions of a lot of that, or
fast-forwarding through endless cassette tapes, or looking for something
in volume 13 of a Braille version, etc. Ok, shutting up now as I feel
quite old. LOL

 No, in the AH5 text flows pretty much uninterrupted. I believe this is not 
 true for all versions, but don’t recall where I read that and I have not 
 tried other versions. I believe some key words are links, but most are not.
  
 I thought hard about the price tag, but also thought about what a new print 
 version would cost.

 I just read the description in the app store. It looks impressive at $24.99.
 One question, in the description it talks about interlinking of words, or 
 something like that. Does it read well with VoiceOver, or does it say link 
 after most of the words?
 Thanks,
 Richard

Wren! 

 

To find the dictioniary app by Farlex, go to the search box in the apps store 
on your iDevice and type dictionary followed by a space followed by Farlex. It 
should be the first result. I believe there is a free and a paid version but if 
you start with the free one, you can do an in-app purchase to upgrade.

The American Heritage 5th edition is the one that Richard Petty recommended.  
It is $24.99.

 

The Dictionary.com app is also very good.

 

So is the Mariam Webster dictionary.

 

Happy reading,

Hello Richard and Everyone,

I am so confused with regard to this thread.

Simply stated, does the twenty-four dollar app work well with VoiceOver with no 
problems such as hearing the word, link, after each entry?  Also, what makes 
this app so expensive?  that is to say, what does one get for this 
comparatively enormous amount of money?

Thank you,

Mark

The American Heritage 5th edition is the one that Richard Petty recommended.  
It is $24.99.

The Dictionary.com app is also very good.

So is the Mariam Webster dictionary.

Happy reading,
Richard

Hi all, so far in this thread I have searched for the American heritage 
dictionary and the lexicon dictionary. Do you all happen to have links for the 
dictionaries you got? There are several results and I'm not sure which one to 
pick. Thank you and God bless, Wren Langley

2015-07-30 Thread Alan Lemly
Andy,

 

I've only ever used the Farlex Dictionary app on an iPhone 5 and iPhone 6.
The app is mostly informational and doesn't seem to tax the device so I
assume it should run just fine on the 4S especially if it's running iOS 7.

 

Alan

Remember that when you start typing in the search box, the list that 
comes up is a suggestion of search terms. To actually perform the 
search, double tap the search button on the right hand edge of your 
virtual keyboard. Just something to keep in mind when you don't see what 
you're looking for in the list of search suggestions.

To find the dictioniary app by Farlex, go to the search box in the apps
store on your iDevice and type dictionary followed by a space followed
by Farlex. It should be the first result. I believe there is a free and
a paid version but if you start with the free one, you can do an in-app
purchase to upgrade.
