Description peavey 2009-01-06 18:47:56 UTC

Version:           0.9.2 (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

I miss this feature of KVocTrain in Parley: When learning vocabulary one should be able to make Parley treat a word as known even if he didn't type the translation correctly (maybe e.g. he only made a typo which is not that important). Thank you.

And how exactly would you define "a typo"? Take for example the english word "stride" which you mistype "strife" (d and f are two neighbor letters on the keyboard). Both of these words are known in the dictionary. Now how would the program know you really mistyped the word and you didn't confuse it with the other (i.e. did not know it?). Rather than doing that automatically, I prefer the way a web-flashcard system does it: at the end of a quiz, it shows you a list of the errors and lets you untick the ones you honestly think you knew. Having a way to export/print that list would even be a great improvement since it would let you concentrate on your errors "off-computer".

I think both are good ideas, being able to mark mistakes as "count as right" and having an evaluation after the practice.
