As you can see below, the entries of the vocabulary are arranged similar to a spreadsheet. Each column represents an expression or word in one language or some other information. The leftmost column contains the name of the lesson this entry belongs to. The second describes the state of the line and the third is always the original word. The others to the right of it represent the respective translations.
In the picture above, you can see that several properties of the vocabulary have a visual representation:
Colors show the grade (Level 1 to 7) of your knowledge
A green check mark in the second columns means that this line is in use for a query (when you did not finish last time) whereas a red cross appears when you deactivated the line.
If you mark a range of entries to work with, they appear with a different background.
The color in the column with the original will vary if you have two or more columns with translations. If the cursor is in one of the translations the color represents its grade “to the original”. See section entry dialog for more on this.
Of course it is also possible to use it as an ordinary dictionary and lookup manually.
On the bottom of the main window you also see the status line which usually contains the three areas that show important properties of the current expression if available:
the type of this word
how to pronounce this expression. If you have a font installed, that contains IPA characters you can also use the characters from the phonetic alphabet. See more about this in the according options dialog page.
your personal remarks
While KVocTrain is loading, saving a large file or otherwise busy doing something time consuming, you will see a progress bar on the right in this status line.
