Compound Words
If you scan a word that is not a dictionary entry, but is a
compound word consisting of existing dictionary entries (e.g.,
in the German to English dictionary), the Quicktionary
separates the compound word into its respective entries.
The translation of the primary word in the compound word
appears first, with the Word List sign next to it.
To display the dictionary entry for another part of the
compound word:
1. Press ENT to go to the Dictionary Screen (if you
scanned more than one word).
2. Press ESC to display the word list.
3. Scroll to the word you want to translate and press ENT.
For example: If you scan the word “Sprachgemeinschaft”, the
entry for “gemeinschaft” appears. Go to the word list and
select “Sprache” to view its translation.
Hear Scanned Text Read Aloud
Scanned text can be read aloud from both the Split Screen
and the Dictionary Screen. Adjust the volume using Voice
Settings in the Preferences menu.
Note: Not all dictionaries have text-to-speech functionality.
Access the Auto Speak option from Preferences in the
Quicktionary Menu.
When Auto Speak is selected:
Scrolling through the text in the Split Screen will cause
the word to be read aloud automatically as it is
highlighted.
Accessing the Dictionary Screen by either scanning a
single word or from the Split Screen will cause the
word to be read aloud automatically.
