Dictionaries is a solution for users who work on a daily basis with a wide variety of foreign languages that they either don't know well or don't know at all.
The moment you enter the app, you are welcomed by a minimalist GUI, with a standard menu and tabs, all wrapped around a black theme color.
The app itself works as an extension for the Dictionaries app, pre-installed, from your Mac. What it does, specifically, is to add more languages-as per your instruction-, and integrate bidirectional translation and pronunciation.
Once you've started the application, you discover that it provides support for over 80 languages and that it can help you, as a user, to save precious time from googling a certain word on your browser.
Besides the specific translation properties, Dictionaries comes with a cool feature that is able to translate words directly from Spotlight.
Overall, Dictionaries is a useful solution for expanding the translation capabilities of your Mac and thus allowing you to gain precious time. The price seems too high and the app does sometimes feel laggy.
