does this dictionary translator record English to Chinese? for instance if I'm at school and I don't UNDERSTAND ENGLISHSPEAKER CAN THIS BE TRANSLATED

YES! I use it all the time when I'm trying to make myself understood with my two Chinese students. But, you do need to type in the English word or phrase. It then shows the Chinese and will say it.

I don't think it does what you're wanting. It does translate english to chinese. But the person can't speak into it and have it translated. The english would need to be typed into the translator.

It will find some words but I don't recommend you buy this dictionary. It has many mistakes in it. Buy the app Pleco for your phone.It works much much better.

I'm not sure I understand your question. This is not a dictionary. It is a translator. It does have an English and Chinese dictionary in it but its main function is to translate. If you input an English word the Longman English dictionary will give you a definition for that word in English. If you want to translate a word or sentence you need to get out of the dictionary and into the English to Chinese or Chinese to English functions.

You need to type in the English any it will speak and show the Chinese. It was very helpful traveling in China and not knowing Chinese.

Yes - the instructions are in English but not very good. Instructions do not say anything about downloading the software from the Audacity website if you have Win7.0 on the computer. We found that after searching on the Taotronics website. It will record for anywhere from about 2-5 minutes, then loses the connection to the player or something and the recording freezes. Will start back up if I cancel and restart, but then freezes again. I cannot believe that this thing does not need some kind of driver for it - computer loses communication with it every time we try to record a cassette. Have tried this on 2 different computers now and same problem on both computers. Yes - the instructions are in English but not very good.

I'm sorry, I don't know. Mine has always recorded wherever I went. You can download a manual in English on line.

Yes the Nuance Dragon Software will actually transcribe for you. It works both live and off recordings. The program has difficulty with scientific or specialized words, and constantly messes up punctuation, but if the choice is between manual transcription and using Dragon you will come out WAY ahead using the software.

Hi Kathleen,The CD-737P does have a microphone, which is featured to record conversations and test your pronunciation on Chinese or English words. It cannot translate the voice recording lecture from English to Chinese through voice recognition. You have to input the entire sentence into the translator for the translation. Regards,Powerdictionary

I don't understand the question! But this is only English Speaking Dictionary, not a translator.

No, but if you find a useful phrase ( and there are many) it will speak the translated phrase for you. Google translate lets you type or speak and then translates with text and/or speech.

No. This translator is only for English to Spanish. Look at the Lingo model on Amazon for multiple language translations.

This one is English-English, English-Spanish, Spanish-English dictionary, not a translator. You can put only one searching word for this, like other dictionaries, not a phrase. Still if you search a word, it will show up lots of phrases and sentences using that word. This one speaks both English and Spanish words even some of the words don't speak. If you have plenty of time to learn, it will be helpful. If you would be in a hurry searching for a right translation at a given moment, this one will be little frustrating.

I was able to install it on Windows 7 with no problem. However, even though I had selected English as the language, it all came up in Chinese (I think). Even in Chinese though I went over to the 3rd or 4th tab over and clicked on it which brought up the various languages and I again selected English which at that point converted everything to English. Hopefully that will help.

All written Chinese languages use the same characters. So, if you are translating Chinese text into English it doesn't matter. However, among the various input methods is pinyin which is associated with Mandarin.

NO ..... and I need it translated...................I only have 'figured out' a few instructions so far...............BUT I really LIKE the CAMERA so far. If you find one let me know....THX......My MENU has NO ENGLISH option.......... and what I have translated is not a good translatable understanding. I 'understand' there are TWO cameras..........one is Engish, etc. translatable the other is not. I apparently have the Non-English.

I haven't tried translating any words yet. I bought it mainly for the definition and pronunciation of words. Sorry I can't help you.

No, it doesn't translate any other language. It only helps you to pronounce the English words.

Hi, this is Gary Davis. I also received one of these---sort of cool! Anyway, you should be able to open the instruction completely as one long page. The English version is included on the reverse side. If this doesn't do it, let me know through Amazon, and I will email you a copy. Just need your email address if English is not on back (rem: You need to unfold completely to get English on one side and Chinese on the other). Hope I hve helped. Gary

The problem is with the Text-to-Speach feature, especially useful when you want to learn another language. This software allows translating from English into another language, but you might not be able to hear the pronunciation with some Windows version.
