The Quicktionary
18
Idioms
Expressions or phrases usually composed of a sequence of
words. They can be identified:
ƒ
Automatically within a sentence
ƒ
By scrolling through the translation of the first word of
the sequence.
If you scan text containing an idiom, the Quicktionary
application will automatically display the translation of the
idiom when the first word is highlighted, i.e. the idiom "From A
to Z" displayed from the headword "From".
Split Verbs
If you scan a single word which is part of a split verb:
1. The translation will appear along with the Word List
icon. In the Word List, the SPLIT VERB option
appears allowing you to scan the first part of the split
verb.
2. The message “Scan 1st part” will appear allowing you
to scan the first part of the split verb in order to view the
translation of the entire verb.
If you scan a line of text containing a split verb (e.g., in the
German to English dictionary), the Quicktionary
automatically recognizes the verb and combines the parts.
The dictionary entry for the verb is displayed as soon as you
highlight the first part of the verb that appears in the sentence.
For example, if you scan in the sentence "ihr stellt etwas auf",
the dictionary entry for "aufstellen" appears as soon as you
highlight "stellt".
