I really want for learning Korean, though I'd be learning via Japanese since that is much more straight forward so a jap-kor one would be fab (though my wallet says no). Electronic dictinaries as a concept for those learning a language or as a tool for profrssional uses is a great. That is, *if* you're an english speaker, I think I dare say, since *I* probably have more use of my elec dictionary than the average native Japanese speaker. Ironic, I know. :P My jap-eng SII dictionary i fantastic for looking up things, serious stuff. Maybe when your students get a better hang of pronunciation and don't rely on the dictionary for that, but rather to learn and look up words etc? ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[blip]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 19th 2007 4:17AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Iriver's D5 electronic dictionary makes us want to learn Korean]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/irivers-d5-electronic-dictionary-makes-us-want-to-learn-korean/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/irivers-d5-electronic-dictionary-makes-us-want-to-learn-korean/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think my post below does it for spelling/grammar errors for today...

It's great, especially because of the fact that I don't know Korean, except for a few words, and the students can look up words that they don't know with it.  Of course, it's better for me to explain it to them, which I do, but.. it's just a study aid.  Now if only I could get one to help me with my Korean... I've found them in the shops around here and they seem to cost about $100 to $300 (for this type of device).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jeremy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 29th 2007 2:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Iriver's D5 electronic dictionary makes us want to learn Korean]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/irivers-d5-electronic-dictionary-makes-us-want-to-learn-korean/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/19/irivers-d5-electronic-dictionary-makes-us-want-to-learn-korean/</guid><description><![CDATA[Meh, I think it's kind of ugly.
