*** Please note: If you are familiar with the version of Ultralingua sold from our website, youll notice some minor differences in this version. In order to make the app available here, we had to remove two features that didnt meet Apples guidelines:
• The hotkey keyboard shortcut
• The dashboard widget

For teaching graduate students to access French journal articles in their research, I have found no better resource than Ultralingua. The program is accurate, fast, intuitive, and affordable. Students who have tried other print or software French resources, inevitably come to agree that Ultralingua is unsurpassed in design and usability.
