translation indicates that the scanned
word corresponds to more than one
dictionary entry. Press to access
the Word List and choose from the
listed dictionary entries. For example,
if you scan the word 'walking',

noun) and 'walking' (adjective and
noun). Scroll through the list by using

the word you want to translate. To
translate the word, press .
Compound Words
If the German word you have
scanned is not a dictionary entry but
is a compound word consisting of
existing dictionary entries, a word
list appears enabling you to select
the parts of the compound word. For
example, if you scan the word
'Sprachgemeinschaft', a word list
appears containing the words 'Sprach'
and 'Gemeinschaft'.

is part of a split verb, e.g. 'aufstellen
in the sentence 'ihr stellt etwas auf',

('stellt'); * appears next to the

s
.
3. Scan the first part of the verb

If the word you have scanned is listed
as part of a split verb and also
corresponds to other dictionary
entries, the word list sign also
appears next to the headword. Press
to enter the word list and select
Split Verb; ÒScan 1st PartÓ appears.
You can now scan the first part of
the verb.
Note:
If the word you have scanned is only
listed as part of a split verb, “Scan
1st Part” appears directly.

1st Part" appears.
2. Scan the first part of the verb
