Note: If you scan in text containing an idiom, Quicktionary automatically displays the
translation of the idiom when the first word of the idiom is highlighted in the translation
screen. For example, if the scanned text contains the idiom ‘move in’, e.g., in the scanned text
‘They moved in yesterday’, the translation of ‘move in’ appears in the bottom of the
translation screen when ‘moved’ is highlighted.
In addition, dictionary entries contain the following features.
Word List Sign
The Word List sign appears to the right of the headword when the meaning of the highlighted
word is ambiguous. It indicates that you can access a list of alternative dictionary entries
when:
 The scanned word corresponds to more than one dictionary entry. For example, if you
scan the word ‘walking,’ the Quicktionary application enables you to choose between the
dictionary entries ‘walking’ (adjective and noun) and ‘walk’ (verb and noun).
 The scanned image is incomplete or unclear. The Quicktionary application gives you a
list of possible spellings from which to choose.
 The scanned word corresponds to two or more identical dictionary entries with separate
meanings (i.e., homonyms), such as, ‘stick’ (noun) and ‘stick’ (verb).
Word list for the word ‘stick’
 The translation of an idiom corresponds to the dictionary entry for a word other than the
highlighted word. To view the translation of the highlighted word only, select the word
from the word list. For example, when the scanned text contains the idiom ‘a close call’,
the translation of ‘a close call’ appears when ‘a’ is highlighted. However, this idiom is
part of the dictionary entry for ‘close.’ To view the translation of ‘a’, you must go to the
word list and select ‘a’.
To use the word list:
1. Verify that the word you want is displayed in the Dictionary Entry screen.
