Seeking English-French dictionary
Try Ultralingua for iOS. I think there's a trial period available for each module. You buy the basic dictionary and then choose to add in-app purchases for the languages you want. The developer was very cooperative in making this aapp accessible. It's got conjugation as well. Its mac version is definitely accessible. I use it very often.
Google translate?
Voice over reads Google translate perfectly...
Oh google translate
How reliable "is" google translate these days? I remember in many instances years ago its translations were ... unique to say the least. I'm sure it must have grown a lot since then though. Speak and Translate has some potential as well. Essentially you set two languages, then say or write what you want translated from one to another. It seems pretty decent. I don't use it extensively, but it's helped me out a few times. It isn't free, but it's cheep, and there's a trial where you can have several translations a day. It's not 100% accessible, but it's pretty decent with some workarounds. I might have to look at Ultralingua though.
