About this app

St.Lucian Creole Dictionary is an easy to use mobile app that will give visitors to St.Lucia and those who are interested in learning Kwéyòl a quick and handy reference to the language.

The second part is an English to Creole translator. Parts of speech and Kwéyòl meanings are given for each English word, again with different senses indicated where applicable.

Both parts feature audio pronunciations of the Kwéyòl words making the app very useful to those who want to learn to speak the creole language.

Ratings and reviews

I love this app! My father is from Dominica, but I was born in the U.S. he speaks Kweyol fluently, with his family back home, but didn't teach me really. :/ This is as close as it gets to me learning without having to ask. I love this app because you have the pronunciations included. Can you also make some common phrases/ slang sentences one day? Thanks a milly! 🖤❤💚

Using to make text to and social media as accurate as my English Communications. spoke Creole all my life but never learned to write it and this app is great at this. Also very good for teaching others the language

If it was not for this app I would never have been able to reclaim, a part of my St Lucian ancestry that I lost when my St Lucian family didn't teach the next generation. Please keep up the good work and keep this app avaliable. I'm reliant on it for my study.
