Language Translator" or "Free Translator" are good, free apps to try out.
For translation the best app used by my friend is "Speech TransTM". It can do both voice and text translations, that too from both English to German and German to English. For dictionary the best app is "German-English Translation Dictionary" which not only shows you the meaning of words but also numbers.
