Word Searching
Take Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary as an example to
illustrate the method of searching a word.
Searching Method
• If you know clearly the word's spelling, you could just input the
word and press ENTER for confirmation. This is called Accurate
Search.
• If you know the past tense/past participle of a verb, you could get
the original verb. This is called Original Search. (for example: if
you input "walked", you would look up "walk")
• If you are not sure of a word's spelling, you could use Wildcard
Search. Input all the letters you know, and then replace the unknown
letters with "?" or "*". "?" stands for an unknown letter. "*" stands for
Wait the recognition
a string of unknown letters. (for example: if you input "pron*c*tion",
you would get "pronunciation")
• If the word you input is not found, the device provides other three
ways to look up: ① Spelling Check, ② The Nearest Word, ③ Add
New Word . ① displays the list of words similar in spelling, ②
displays the nearest word in order, ③ add the unfound word into
DIY Dictionary.
• If you want to search for the sentences/phrases/whole text of a
word in the device's database, please input this word and then
press Search .
• You could search the unfamiliar or phrases on the explanation
screen. This is called multi -layered search. On the explanation
screen, highlight the unknown words or phrases to be looked up.
And press corresponding keys to search the results.
For example: Accurate Search for [calm]. On the index screen of
Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, press C , A , L , M ,
ENTER in turn.
For example: Wildcard Search for [pron*c*tion]. Press the string of
the word and then press ENTER .
For example: Multi-layered Search for [upset]. On the explanation
screen of [calm], highlight the [upset] with stylus, and press F1 to
look up from English-Chinese Dictionary.
