Description:

Pleco is a comprehensive Chinese learning companion that offers a range of powerful tools to enhance your language learning journey. Developed by a highly regarded company specializing in mobile Chinese learning apps since 2001, Pleco combines an integrated dictionary, document reader, and flashcard system with innovative features such as fullscreen handwriting input and live optical character recognition (OCR).

<h4>Key Features:</h4>

<ul>
 <li>Extensive Dictionary Collection: Pleco provides access to a wide selection of dictionaries. In addition to two free built-in dictionaries, including the frequently updated CC-CEDICT and Pleco's own PLC dictionary featuring over 125,000 entries and example sentences (with Pinyin), there are over two dozen other dictionaries available as add-ons. These include licensed titles from reputable publishers like Oxford, Longman, FLTRP, Tuttle, SLPH, and Commercial Press.</li>
 <li>Merged Search Functionality: With Pleco's merged search feature, users can conveniently look up words by Chinese characters, Pinyin (with optional spaces and tones), or English. The search results are presented in a combined and frequency-sorted list, eliminating the need to switch between different dictionaries.</li>
 <li>Links and Cross-References: Pleco facilitates efficient exploration of character components, individual character breakdowns, lists of words containing specific characters, and example sentences. Users can easily navigate across multiple dictionaries to find the information they need.</li>
 <li>Elegant Typography: Pleco prides itself on its visually appealing interface with beautiful typography. Users can choose from alternate Kai/Song/Xing-style Chinese fonts (available as paid add-ons) to suit their preferences.</li>
 <li>Support for Multiple Chinese Variants: Pleco caters to users from mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan by supporting both traditional and simplified characters. Headword readings can be displayed in Pinyin and Zhuyin, and certain dictionaries even offer support for Cantonese.</li>
 <li>Audio Support: Users can listen to Mandarin and Cantonese pronunciations of words and example sentences using the built-in text-to-speech system on iOS. For higher-quality recordings and native-speaker Mandarin pronunciations, add-ons are available for purchase.</li>
 <li>Document Reader: Pleco's document reader allows for easy import of text from the clipboard. Users can tap on words within the text to instantly look up their meanings. The upgrade option offers enhanced functionality, including tap-lookups in various file formats such as text, HTML, DOC, DOCX, PDF, and EPUB. Pleco also provides graded readings as a paid add-on.</li>
 <li>Optical Character Recognition (OCR): With Pleco's OCR feature, users can simply point their device's camera at words or tap on them in still images to look them up (available as a paid add-on).</li>
 <li>Fullscreen Handwriting: Pleco offers a unique fullscreen handwriting input method that allows users to utilize the entire screen for writing Chinese characters. It is highly accurate and forgiving of stroke order errors. An enhanced paid version is available.</li>
 <li>Flashcards: The flashcard system in Pleco enables users to create study cards from any dictionary entry with a single tap. Users can import pre-made word lists, utilize advanced memorization techniques such as spaced repetition system (SRS), and engage in various study modes, including fill-in-the-blanks handwriting and tone drills (available as a paid add-on).</li>
 <li>Stroke Order Diagrams: Pleco offers animations that demonstrate the correct way to write each character, covering 500 characters for free and an extensive collection of 28,000 characters in the paid version.</li>
 <li>User Dictionaries: Users can create new dictionary entries directly on their devices as they encounter new words (available as a paid add-on).</li>
 <li>No Ads: Pleco is advertisement-free, ensuring an uninterrupted learning experience.</li>
</ul>
