Using LingoTeach

One by One Register

The One by One register is the most simple register of LingoTeach. At the top of it, you will notice a language and translation and a border, which seperates them from other languages and translations. That row is influenced by the settings you made for the Main Language in the section called “General Settings”. More translations will be shown beneath the broder, depending on the languages you selected.

You can listen to the sound of native speakers (if you at least installed the sound packages) by clicking in the Play button on the right side of the translation. Make sure, that you set up your Sound Path and Sound Player in the section called “System Settings”.

Multichoice

Multichoice Register

Multichoice lets you choose from multiple possible answers. Only one of them is right. If you click on the right answer, a new set of translations will be displayed, if you click on a wrong one, nothing will happen.

In case you have absolutely no idea, clicking on the No Idea button will bring you a new set of translations.

Search and Browse

Search and Browse Register

The Search and Browse register lets you browse the translations of al in a lesson in a tree-like form. Simply select your wanted lesson from the list at the top, click on Refresh and work with it.

Note: If loading takes too long for you (you can see the loading status at the progress bar in the lower right corner), you can stop it by clicking on the small Cancel button besides the progress bar. This will stop loading, but also create an incomplete view of the translations.

You can easily add and remove translations by selecting a row and clicking on the appropriate button. The Edit button will lead you to a small new window, in which you can edit the translation.

When you finished modifying the lesson, you can either save it back (this will need write access of the lesson) or save it in a new file.

If you want to search for a paricular Id, type, language or translation, you can use the filter. Select the option, you want to filter for and type in your filter.
