I think PonyExpress is better than sentencedict.com.                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .

I think lengusa.com is MUCH better than this site. Google lengusa and search the same keyword...                                                                                                                           .                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .                                                                                                                            .
