Homographs
A homograph is a word that has more than one pronunciation with a corresponding separate
meaning. If, when Auto Speak is activated (see the section Quicktionary Menu Options, on
p.34, you scan a homograph, Quicktionary displays a homograph list that shows each
homograph and its corresponding part(s) of speech, e.g., ‘close’ (verb) and ‘close’ (adj.).
Homograph list
If the homograph is part of a scanned sentence, the Quicktionary application displays the
homograph list when you highlight the word in the Translation screen. If the homograph
is the first word of the sentence, the homograph list will appear automatically. Scroll to
the desired entry and press
. The Quicktionary application returns to the Translation
screen and automatically pronounces the selected option.
If the homograph is the only word you have scanned, the Quicktionary application

The Quicktionary application displays the Dictionary Entry screen. Press to
pronounce the word.
The homograph list does not appear automatically when Auto Speak is deactivated. Instead,
it appears when you press
while in the Dictionary Entry screen in order to pronounce the
highlighted word.
Split Verbs
∗∗∗
If you scan in a line of text that contains a split verb (e.g., in German), the Quicktionary
application automatically recognizes the verb and combines the parts. The dictionary entry
for the verb is displayed as soon as you highlight the first part of the verb that appears in the
sentence. For example, if you scan in the sentence ‘ihr stellt etwas auf’, the dictionary entry
for ‘aufstellen’ appears as soon as you highlight ‘stellt’.
