Summer time is holiday time for many people, and if you would like to spend your holiday in a foreign country, you often have to overcome language barriers, for even average knowledge of the language is sometimes insufficient, for example if your car suddenly breaks down (which we don’t wish on anyone, of course) and you are looking for words such as “generator” or “V-belt” in the foreign language. Luckily, dictionary and translation apps offer you the possibility of looking up words or even whole sentences quickly and comfortably in all possible languages. We would like to present some of them to you below.
