The Phrasebook

Phrasebook Tab

Lexicanter’s Phrasebook feature allows you to add phrases with all the features of the main Lexicon. When opening the Phrasebook tab, you’ll see three panels. At the left are the Categories where you can organize your phrases; to the right is where your phrases will be displayed depending on what category is selected; and at the bottom is where you can add and edit phrases.

When adding new phrases, it functions the same as the Lexicon tab. On the bottom left, when the phrase is added it will have pronunciation rules applied automatically. You can add the definition and tags to organize it even further. Under that is a fourth textbox to enter the category of the phrase. This can be a single or multi-word phrase. If you are already viewing the phrases in a category, this text box will be filled in for you.

On the right side of the phrase editor panel, you can add variants - or other versions - of the new phrase. You can add as many variants as needed. The ‘Add Phrase’ button will add the new phrase, as well as the category if it is not already present. On the top right panel, there are search functions just like in the Lexicon tab and can be used to search the Phrasebook.
