Finding Letters in Words

If you are uncertain about how to spell a
word, type a question mark (?) in place of
each unknown letter. To find prefixes, suffix-
es, and other parts of words, type an aster-
isk (

) in a word. Each asterisk stands for a

series of letters. Note: If you type an aster-
isk at the beginning of a word, it may take a
little while to find the matching words.
1. Press E/D to switch to the German

Word Entry screen, if needed.

2. Type a word with ?s and

s.

To type an asterisk, hold down

the word you want and press
EINGABE to view its definition.

5. Press CLEAR when done.

more than one form (e.g. resume,
résumé). When the word you are
looking up has multiple forms, the
different forms appear in a list.
Simply highlight the form you want
and press EINGABE to see its dic-
tionary entry. For example, enter
resume at the Word Entry screen.
