Now Translate Numbers, Dates, and Symbols on SpanishDict!
We are happy to announce a powerful new translation tool for numbers, dates, and symbols. Learning how to translate numbers and dates can be difficult. Traditional dictionaries and translation tools have always come up short--only showing the translations for a few numbers, leaving people to puzzle over the proper translation for larger numbers, dates, and symbols. With SpanishDict's intelligent translation box, it is now simple. Just type in the date, time, number or symbol and you will receive translations in both Spanish and English. You can try these examples:
5:00pm - A las cinco de la tarde
4th - el cuarto
23,173 - veintitrés mil, ciento setenta y tres
06-30-2012 - el sábado, el treinta de junio, dos mil, doce
The range of the new translation tools is impressive. SpanishDict is equipped to handle numbers from ?999,999,999,999,999 to 999,999,999,999,999. You can also get full translations on a wide spectrum of decimals, dates, times, common symbols and even smilies 
. To get started, just use the following formats:
Numbers: ###,###.##
Dates: MM-DD-YYYY
Time: HH:MMpm
We hope you enjoy the new functionality!

This is one of the best new functions, Paralee, thanks so much!
l love it! 
Just wanted to let everyone know that we published the big announcement in the blog and there is even a little video to show you how it works.
Thanks to Mountaingirl123 for help in making the video!
This is a major undertaking, and I see it's not quite finished. I know many of the technical problems getting this to work in a web application setting. I'm sure it required a lot of planning, design, and testing, testing, testing!
I am very impressed that it works as well as it does!
Great work, everybody!
Oh this is so cool! I always have problems with my numbers. This is going to be great practice. Thanks Paralee & SD
For everyone involved in this project, thanks so much!!! In fact, there seem to be many new and exciting changes. I can only speak for myself, but I'm sure most will agree that it is amazing how much time and effort those who run this site, including the administrators put into creating such an amazing experience for us.
Honestly, what is offered here for free is truly amazing and it is getting better all the time! 
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!!!!
I am very impressed, thank you so much. There is so much hard work on this site, and all for free, amazing
This is great, Paralee, and it really works. Now I know when I was born (I mean the day of the week). Thank you, my friends, it appears that Tuesday is the best day of the week for me. Cool!!! So, tomorrow is my birthday.
Wow Paralee I am impressed! This will be a fabulous and very useful tool for anyone here who is serious about learning Spanish 
I can hardly wait to use it 
Thank you so much for providing this tool/making it available for us
Infact if you were still single I could have asked you for a date (get it? )
I know that you would have said: ''¿Te gustaría salir conmigo?'' o ''¿Te gustaría tomar un café?'' o even ¿Te gustaría tener una cita conmigo ?
Don't worry when you have got over the groaning you will get used to my sense of humour
Corrijan mi Español, por favor
thats cool
Big sigh of relief. Very nice!
This is absolutely fantastic. Paralee, and whoever else helped to develop this new tool, thank you so much! Honestly I am amazed that this site is still free...
Thanks Paralee, this is great!
Thank you so much for this cool function!
I think it is good practice just randomly keying in a number, figure out what it is in Spanish, then hit the enter button and wait for the answer. Its almost like an instant way of knowing if I'm right or wrong!
Just wonderful - especially for the decades, 1956, 2011 etc.
