ArkWords 2.4
For Windows Phone users, ArkWords will serve as a trusty assistant that is able to carry out several tasks related to the significance of words and usage scenarios for any type of terms.
Nicely designed interface with everything at hand
The simple and clean GUI of this utility is well prepared to allow everyone to use its features with no efforts. The nice layout of the app offers quick access to the main modules, while the navigation among its menus and lists of words is seamless, without any visible glitches.
Reading the information contained by ArkWords is easy and without any strain for the eye, as it has an appropriate color combination between the background and the fonts used in the interface. Also, the "Word of the day" feature is shown right inside the Start screen, as it is displayed in the app's tile.
Enjoy the useful built-in translator, thesaurus and dictionary modules
There is a built-in dictionary that can function as the primary source of word definitions, as it offers quite a good deal of information, with details including the source of each meaning and some illustrative examples here and there.
The thesaurus module of this app serves as an important reference insofar as the synonyms, antonyms and hyponyms for any given term are concerned. Also, the utility can display a list of words that can share the same context with the one you used as source.
There is a translation module included in ArkWords and it supports over 50 languages. The engine you will use for performing the transformations can be selected from the two available, namely Bing and Google.
