Accenting Letters

You can look up accented words without typing accents. If there are no Multiple Forms, the German/English Dictionary will take you directly to the word. If there are Multiple Forms, you will have to choose the correct word from a Multiple Forms list. See “Choosing Multiple Forms” for more information.

Remember, if you want to enter an accent yourself, type the letter and press ✓Accenting Letters until the appropriate accent appears.

Getting Grammar Guidance

When viewing inflections, you can press HILFE to go directly to the Grammar Guide and view detailed descriptions of how to use the inflections you were viewing along with usage examples.

Viewing English Inflections

If you are unfamiliar with inflections, it may be helpful to look at some inflected forms of English verbs. Switch the entry language back to English, enter write and touch CONJ to see the different forms of the English verb “to write”.

This will give you a good idea of each inflection form.
