See this list: ****://tinyurl.***/37dyqj
You can use any dictionary online. Alternatively you can buy a dictionary in the bookshop. Very useful: ***.leo.org
Download the LoveEurope Refugee app (***.love-europe.org/download). It includes the Refugee phrasebook with the 200-300 most needed sentences in the most used languages in Europe and the mother tongues of refugees. You can combine any two language so it is very useful and you can start talking with almost anybody.

Hallo,

I use:

1) Wordreference (****://***.wordreference.***/): It is a very good dictionary with a lot of explanations in different contexts. You can also **** for expressions and the conjugation of verbs and there is a forum to ask any questions you might have. I'm using also the app and it's very useful. And you have a lot of languages.

2) Linguee (****://***.linguee.***/english-german): This one is very useful if you want to **** for a complete sentence, expression or word included in different texts where you can verify in which situation could you say it properly.

3) Reverso (****://diccionario.reverso.net/): I use it normally to verify the conjugations and you have also the dictionary and other options in different languages.

4) I have also been told that Pons (****://es.pons.***/traducci%C3%B3n) is very good for German.

Last year we collected a number of phrases at https://***.refugeephrasebook.de/phrasebooks/ .

The translations are accessible in Google Spreadsheets, so you can easily print your own list of phrases
