English <-> Italian Talking Dictionary for Palm OS provides bidirectional word translation and speech synthesis.

Make your Palm speak English with LingvoSoft English <-> Italian Talking Bidirectional Dictionary! Just select any English word and with one click make the speech synthesizer pronounce it for you. The synthesizer (Text-to-Speech engine) is based on a new approach to speech synthesis, i.e. formant synthesis, which creates a human voice simulation by modeling the sounds of natural language.

The new English <-> Italian dictionary is an extensive language resource. It features a searchable database of 400,000 words and phrases. Each entry is completed with part of speech information and several translation options for all polysemantic words.

The new software is a combination of ease-of-use and flexibility.

• Advanced English speech synthesis. The function is built on the TTS (Text-to-Speech) technology.

Kickstartnews.com review by Howard Carson "Runs from a card when using PowerRUN. If you're looking for a pocket language translation reference for your Palm OS PDA and you need a huge reference database rather than the usual (and absurdly limited) tourist phrase book, this is it. We were delighted with the French, German, Spanish and Japanese databases. The viewer/reader is very fast and look-ups are similarly almost instantaneous. It's a useful, cleanly designed program. Well done. Recommended."
