Re: Spanish-English / English-Spanish translator app?

I think I previously used Google Translator for Windows Mobile, but I don't have a clear memory about it. It might be worth trying.

Minor corrections: El español es el segundo idioma de este paÃ*s. "Idioma" is masculine. Nouns of Greek origin that end in -ma, -pa, and -ta are masculine. Examples include:
* el programa/ program
* el mapa/ map
* el poeta/ poet
* el planeta/ planet
* el idioma/ language
* el sistema/ system
* el telegrama/ telegram
* el problema/ problem
* el clima/ climate
* el drama/ drama
* el cometa/ comet
* el diploma/ diploma
* el tema/ theme
(source)

Also, I think you should use the word "segundo" instead of "secondario," although I'm not sure. To me, the word "secondario" has the connotation of "high school" or "secondary school." Maybe it's just me.
