The Quicktionary
17
Word List
The
Word List
sign appears at the top right of the
Dictionary Screen
and indicates that there are
additional entries for the headword on screen. Press ESC
to view the
Word List
.
The
Word List
appears:
When the scanned word corresponds to more than
one dictionary entry. For example, if you scan the
word “dressing”, the Quicktionary application
enables you to choose between the dictionary
entries “dress” and “dressing”.
When the scanned word is a homonym, a word that
is the same as another in spelling but different in
meaning.
After scanning an idiom or phrasal verb, the
Quicktionary
will automatically recognize the
entire phrase from the first word highlighted, and will
provide a
Word List
containing both the whole
idiom and the first highlighted word.
Headword
The selected word or a derivative of the selected word,
may consist of more than one word. The screenshots
here display the headword "special" and the word "ate", a
derivative of the headword "eat".
