A Review of dictionary.com Dictionary and Thesaurus for iPad

The Dictionary app from Dictionary.com includes both a dictionary (Random House) and a thesaurus.

Upon launching, the top of the screen has an input field and the bottom has a tool bar with icons for dictionary, thesaurus, recent words and word-of-the-day; the middle portion of the screen is wasted with a splash-screen.
As you type the word, a list of completions, matching the portion of the word you have typed, appears in the middle part of the screen. You can either continue typing the rest of the word or can select it from the list.
 
So far, the dictionary has found meanings for all the words i have searched:

• yenta (mentioned in a NY Times article),
  
• trattoria,
  
• farrago,
  
• Manichean (my test-word, which, surprisingly, is not in the iPad's auto-correct dictionary),
  
• encephalon.
  

An additional benefit of the app is that it has audio pronunciations for the words (where I  learned the correct way to pronounce "trattoria"-- accent on the last syllable.)

There are only two items that are customizable in the Settings menu:

• automatically display the keyboard on start-up (which I enabled and which should be on by default)
• enable tracking (by dictionary.com of words you searched for; I turned this off)

The only suggestion I have for improvement is to allow the word-of-the-day to be displayed upon start-up in the middle portion of the screen currently occupied by the company logo. I rate the Dictionary.com app 4 out of 4 stars.
