VocableTrainerX is intended to be an easy program to learn vocables of a foreign language, without bloat.

You can enter vocables in two languages and afterwards start a quiz to learn them by heart, like you would do it with flashcards.

Pressing "Add Vocable" on the toolbar opens a drawer, there you can enter the word in both languages plus the lesson it belongs to. When you entered it, you can add the next vocables. The lesson isn't deleted yet as normally you enter more vocables of one lesson in one session.

You can either start a quiz by pressing "Start quiz with selection" , which simply does what it says at once, or by pressing "Start quiz" which lets you select the lessons you wanted to be tested about plus lets you specify the order of languages you will be asked.

Simple! You will see the vocable in one language, you'll make up your mind what it should be in the other language, then you press solve to see if you were right. If so, press right guess, if not, press wrong guess, and the next vocable is gonna appear.

If you're through with all vocables you have the choice of repeating the quiz with all the vocables you didn't knew.

In the main list of vocables you will see for each vocable how well you already know it. R stands for number of right guesses, T stands for number of total guesses. The traffic light control on the right is on green if you knew the vocable in more than 2 thirds of your attempts, on red if you knew it in less than 1 third of your attempts and on white if you never tried it yet. You can also reset the counter in the menue.

Of course you can also delete, sort, filter, copy and paste your vocables, plus export them into a CSV file if you want to work on them in your spreadsheet programm.

What's New:
Added French translation (thanks to Daniel Girod)
Printing shows now the name of the Document, if given the name of the lesson plus the page numbers.
