=Inleiding=

Parley is een woordenschattrainer.
Het programma kan ondersteunen bij het leren van uw woordenschat, bijvoorbeeld als u een vreemde taal probeert te leren.
U kunt uw eigen verzamelingen maken met de woorden die u nodig hebt, of kiezen uw een grote verzameling beschikbare [[Special:myLanguage/Parley#Vocabulary_Collections|Vocabulairecollecties]].
Er zijn collecties die taalvocabuliare bevatten en ook collecties met betrekking tot anatomie, muziek, geografie, scheikunde, of voorbereidingen voor examens.

Parley is erg flexibel en gebruiker de leermethode met [http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geheugenkaartjes flitskaarten].
Parley volgt automatisch uw leerproces.
Met Parley kunt u uw woordenschat ordenen zoals u wilt, en u kunt uw eigen lessen ontwerpen.
In tegenstelling tot wanneer u echte flitskaarten gebruikt, kunt u verschillende leermethoden gebruiken met Parley.

Flitskaarten bevatten aan de voorkant expressies en hun vertalingen staan aan de achterkant.
U begint met een stapel kaarten.
Als u de vertaling van een kaart kent, kunt u de kaart op een tweede stapel leggen.
Als u de vertaling niet kent, houdt u de kaart in de eerste stapel en probeert het later nog een keer.

Parley probeert u geen grammatica aan te leren, hoewel er wel een aantal lesvormen zijn die het mogelijk maken hierbij te ondersteunen.

Parley heeft twee onderdelen: [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice|Woordenschattraining]] en een [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Vocabulary Editing|Tekstverwerker voor vocabulairecollecties]].

In deze handleiding refereert de term ''Vocabulairecollectie'' aan een bestand dat lessen en het vocabulaire van de lessen bavat.

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
De Tekstverwerker en de Oefening kunnen gestart worden vanaf de [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Start Page|Startpagina]].
</div>

De [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice|Oefening]] bestaat uit drie delen: als eerste de [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice Setup|Oefeningsopzet]] waar u kunt kiezen wat u wilt oefenen.
Vanaf daar start u de eigenlijke [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice|Oefening]] en als u klaar bent krijgt u een [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Summary After Practice|Samenvatting]].

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Tip: probeer zoals in alle programma's rechts te klikken als u mogelijkheden in Parley aan het ontdekken bent.
Door rechtsklikken verschijnt een "contextueel menu" dat weergeeft wat u vanuit de huidige situatie kunt doen.
Probeer rechts te klikken op lessen en woorden om nieuwe mogelijkheden te vinden.
</div>

=Startpagina=

When you first launch Parley the '''Start Page''' welcomes you.
At first the '''Start Page''' is empty, once you opened some vocabulary collections, it shows you the ones you worked with most recently.

[[Image:Parley welcome screen.png|500px]]

Een vocabuliarecollectie is een bebestand dat woorden en hun vertalingen in andere talen bevat of andere woordparen en zinnen die u wilt leren.
De woorden worden samengevoegd tot lessen.

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Om te gaan '''oefenen''' klikt u op een van de vocabuliarecollecties in de lijst.
U komt dan terecht in het venster voor [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice_Setup|oefeningsinstellingen]].
</div>

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Er verschijnt een klein '''Bewerkingsicoon''' rechts van de documentnaam waar u de muis over beweegt.
Via het Bewerkingsicoon kunt u de collectie in de tekstverwerker openen in plaats van in de oefenmodus.
U kunt collectie [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Vocabulary_Editing|bewerken]] door op het '''Bewerkingsicoon''' te klikken.
</div>

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Als u uw eigen vocabuliarecollectie wilt beginnen, klik dan op "Nieuwe collectie aanmaken".
</div>

U kunt ook een [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Open an existing collection|collectie openen]] als u die al op uw computer aanwezig is, maar nog niet in de lijst is opgenomen.

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
De laatste knop op de Startpagina maakt het mogelijk vocabulairecollecties die gemaakt zijn door anderen te downloaden.
Als u een bestand hebt gemaakt dat u met anderen wilt delen, kunt u het op eenvoudige wijze uploaden vanuit de tekstverwerker.
</div>

Parley kent verschillende thema's en in de instellingen kunt u een andere vormgeving instellen.
Meer informatie staat in [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Configure Parley|Parley instellen]].
<span id="Open an existing collection"></span>
=Een bestaande collectie openen=

We nemen aan dat uw collectie al op uw harde schijf staat.

Zo ziet het scherm eruit als u Parley voor de eerste keer start:

[[File:Parley_initial_screen_0-9-4.png|500px]]

Klik op '''Bestaande collectie openen'''.

Navigeer in het dialoog voor bestandsselectie naar de map die het gegevensbestand bevat en selecteer het door erop te klikken.
Afhankelijk van uw systeem opent het bestand direct of moet u nog op '''OK''' klikken.

[[File:Parley file select dialog 0-9-4.png|500px]]

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Het bestand is nu geladen en u kunt doorgaan naar het scherm voor de Oefeningsinstellingen. In de volgende paragraaf wordt hier toelichting op gegeven.
</div>
<span id="Vocabulary Practice"></span>
=Woordenschat oefenen=

Selecteer een document na het starten van Parley om te beginnen met oefenen.
Als u het document al in de tekstverwerker hebt geopend, klik dan op '''Oefenen''' in de werkbalk. 
<span id="Practice Setup"></span>
===Oefeningsinstellingen===

Voordat het eigenlijke oefenen begint, krijgt u altijd de pagina Oefeningsinstellingen te zien.
Er zijn drie gebieden waar u kunt kiezen wat u wilt oefenen:
* Talen kiezen;
* Oefenmodus kiezen;
* Te oefenen lessen waarvoor ook voortgang gerapporteerd wordt.

[[File:configure_practice.png|500px]]

Aan de linkerzijde kunt u de combinatie van te oefenen talen kiezen.
Als u bijvoorbeeld Engels naar Frans selecteert, krijgt u Engelstalige woorden te zien en Parley vraagt u dan de Franse vertaling in te voeren.

Onder de taalkeuze kunt u de oefenmodus kiezen.
De '''Oefenmodus''' bepaalt hoe de vragen aan u gesteld worden.

In het grote deel van het venster recht, ziet u de lessen van de vocabuliarecollectie.
U kunt selecteren welke lessen u wilt oefenen met een vinkje dat voor de naam van de les staat.
Het aantal woorden dat iedere les bevat wordt naast de naam van de les weergegeven.
Rechts van de naam staat de huidige voortgang voor de les.
<span id="Advanced Practice Configuration"></span>
===Gevorderde oefeningsinstellingen===

In de '''Gevorderde oefeningsinstellingen''' kunt u meer instellingen maken die de wijze waarop de oefening wordt aangeboden bepalen.

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
In de pagina [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Practice_Setup|Oefeningsinstellingen]] kunt u de Gevorderde oefeningsinstellingen bereiken door op de knop '''Oefeningsinstellingen''' in de werkbalk te klikken.
Het is de knop met het groene icoon.
</div>
<span id="Blocking"></span>
====Blokkeren====

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
Als u uw vocabuliare regelmatig wilt oefenen, zorg er dan voor dat de optie '''Blokkeren''' is ingeschakeld.
De opties voor Blokkeren zijn onderdeel van de [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Advanced Practice Configuration|Gevorderde oefeningsinstellingen]].
Ga daar naar de blokkeerpagina en vink het vinkje Blokkeren aan.
U kunt nu de interval aangeven waarmee woorden die u juist hebt beantwoord worden herhaald.
</div>

'''Blokkeren''' betekent dat woorden een bepaalde periode niet opnieuw gevraagd worden na de laatste oefening.
Deze periode hangt af van hoe goed u het woord kende, zodat woorden die u nog niet zo goed kende vaker langskomen.

[[File:configure_blocking.png|500px]]

====Drempelwaardes====

Drempelwaardes zijn een andere manier om te beperken wat u wilt oefenen.

[[File:Parley configure_thresholds.png|500px]]

You can decide to practice only words that you know better or less well than some grade. Or you can select only words that you have practiced a certain number of times.
<span id="Advanced Practice Settings"></span>
<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
==== Gevorderde oefeningsinstellingen ====
</div>

You can find several more configuration options for the practice in the advanced settings page.

[[File:Parley configure_advanced.png|500px]]

De belangrijkste instellingen zijn: 
 * Fouten met accenten negeren: als u met deze instelling  optie als u een woord met'''e''' in plaats van '''é''' invoert, wordt het niet fout gerekend.
 * Fouten met hoofdletters negeren: met deze instellingen worden fouten in hoofdlettergebruik niet fout gerekend.
 * Afbeeldingen inschakelen: Als deze instelling is ingeschakeld, worden tijdens het oefenen beschikbare afbeeldingen weergegeven.
 * Actieve vragen tijdens het oefenen: hoeveel worden worden herhaald voordat er een nieuw woord wordt toegevoegd. Als u deze instelling op een laag getal instelt, komen woorden sneller terug, terwijl het bij een hoge instelling langer duurt voor een woord opnieuw wordt gevraagd.
<span id="Practice"></span>
=== Oefenen ===

====Flash Cards====

After having activated the '''Flash Card''' Practice Mode and having clicked on '''Start Practice''' the following screen shows up. The Flash Card training mode works just as if you would do it with "real" flash cards. You imagine the result and should you wish some help, you can click on '''Hint''' which will start to give you the result one letter at a time.

U kunt ook besluiten om een woord over te slaan. Wanneer u klikt op'''Later beantwoorden''' komt het woord op een later moment weer opdagen.

[[File:Parley practice grey flash.png|500px]]

Klikken op "Doorgaan" geeft het antwoord.
Op dat moment moet u aangeven of u het antwoord wist.
Als u het niet wist, klik dan op '''Ik wist het niet'''.
Als u het antwoord wist, klikt u op '''Ik wist het'''.
Daarna komt de volgende vraag.

On the left hand side bottom of the screen you have 7 boxes that show how good you know the vocabulary. These 7 boxes correspond to the blocking levels set under '''[[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Blocking|Blocking]]''' in the '''Advanced Practice Configuration'''

{{Tip|Instead of clicking '''Continue''' you can also use the <keycap>Spacebar</keycap> of your keyboard.}}

[[File:Parley practice grey flash solution.png|500px]]

You can stop practicing anytime by clicking on '''Stop Practice'''.

====Mixed Letters====

Mixed Letters is a training method that provides you with an immediate help: all letters that are part of the solution are shown mixed up:

[[File:Parley mixed letters 0-9-4 001.png|500px]]

Should you wish some help, you can click on '''Hint''' which will give you the solution one letter at a time. Of course you can also decide to '''Answer Later''' by clicking on that button.

To give the answer type it in the blank field below the mixed letters and press the <keycap>Enter</keycap> key or '''Continue''' button.

If your answer was correct Parley will tell you so and you can press <keycap>Enter</keycap> again or click on '''Continue''' to go ahead with the next question.

[[File:Parley mixed letters 0-9-4 002.png|500px]]

Should you enter a wrong answer, you will be told to ''try again'':

[[File:Parley mixed letters 0-9-4 003.png|500px]]

If you don't know the answer, just click on '''Continue''' a second time. Then the following comes up and you are shown the solution. Go ahead with '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley mixed letters 0-9-4 004.png|500px]]

After the solution is revealed, you see a big icon on the right that indicates if your answer will count as right or wrong.
You can overrule how your answer is counted. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Counting an Answer as Right|Counting an Answer as Right]].

==== Meerkeuzevragen====

=====Automatic selection of the possible answers=====

In '''Multiple Choice''' mode you are shown a number of potential answers, of which only one is correct. By clicking on '''Hint''' Parley excludes one of the wrong answers so that your choice gets more and more restricted with each further click on '''Hint'''. Of course you may also choose to '''Answer Later'''.

[[File:Parley multiple choice 0-9-4 001.png|500px]]

Once you made your choice by clicking on what you believe to be correct, Parley shows up with the screen below if the answer was right. Go ahead with the next question by clicking on '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley multiple choice 0-9-4 002.png|500px]]

If your answer instead was wrong, the correct answer will be shown in green and the wrong one in red. Also here you go ahead by clicking on '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley multiple choice 0-9-4 003.png|500px]]

After the solution is revealed, you see a big icon on the right that indicates if your answer will count as right or wrong.
You can overrule how your answer is counted. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Counting an Answer as Right|Counting an Answer as Right]].

If you wish to stop practice, just click on the '''Stop Practice''' button.

=====With yes/no answers=====

Normally Parley automatically proposes one correct and several wrong answers in Multiple Choice mode. For some exercises instead you will have preset answers like yes/no or similar. And for these you have to configure the practice by clicking on '''[[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Advanced Practice Configuration|Configure Practice]]'''.

Select the tab '''Advanced''' and you will get something very similar to the following screenshot:

[[File:Parley configure_advanced.png|500px]]

If you have just ''two choices'' like ''yes/no'' in the section '''Multiple Choice''' set the '''Number of choices''' to '''2'''.

====Written====

When you select the option '''Written''' to do your practice you are supposed to type in the solution. You can use the button '''Hint''' which will start to give you the result one letter at a time. Of course you can also decide to '''Answer Later''' by clicking on that button.

[[File:Parley practice grey written.png|500px]]

Once you have entered the solution, click on '''Continue''' and Parley will show whether your answer was correct. Go ahead by clicking on '''Continue''' again.

[[File:Parley practice grey written right.png|500px]]

Should you give a wrong answer, you may try again several times to find the right answer. If you don't try again, and just click on '''Continue''', the solution will be shown.

[[File:Parley practice grey written wrong.png|500px]]

Go ahead practicing by clicking on '''Continue''' or stop by clicking on the button '''Stop Practice'''.

When the solution is revealed, you see a big icon on the right that indicates if your answer will count as right or wrong.
You can overrule how your answer is counted. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Counting an Answer as Right|Counting an Answer as Right]].
<span id="Counting an Answer as Right"></span>
====Counting an Answer as Right ====

After the solution is revealed, you see a big icon on the right that indicates if your answer will count as right or wrong.
If you see the big checkmark, Parley thinks you were right.

[[File:Parley practice icon right.png]]

If you needed more than one attempt to answer correctly, your answer will be counted as wrong.

[[File:Parley practice icon wrong.png]]

You can click the small icon next to the indicator to change how your answer is counted. The big symbol always indicates how the answer is counted.

====Reset Practice to Initial State====

You can reset all your practice scores (remove the grades) to the initial state. When being in edit mode select '''Edit''' from the menu bar and then '''Remove Grades'''.

Furthermore you can reset your grades for individual lessons from within the '''Practice Setup''' by right clicking on the lesson to reset and choose '''Remove Grades'''.
<span id="Summary After Practice"></span>
=== Summary After Practice ===

The summary shows up when you finish a learning session. In the big bar on the top it shows you how well you did.

Below is a table with all the words you practiced, together with the mistakes you made.
The words with the most mistakes are on top so you can easily see what you do not know yet.

[[File:Parley practice summary.png|500px]]

=== Grammar Practice Modes ===

With Parley you can also learn specific grammar structures, such as the gender of nouns, the comparison forms of adjectives and the conjugation of verbs. Let's look at some examples.

==== Articles and Gender of Nouns ====

Once the practice mode '''Gender of Nouns''' is activated, click on '''Start Practice'''.

In the case below we use German as language to learn and so you have three genders to choose from: masculine, feminine and neuter. By clicking on '''Hint''' one of the wrong answers gets excluded. Of course you can also decide to '''Answer Later''' by clicking on that button.

You should enter the articles for the language in the Editor to see the articles instead of the grammatical gender terms. Also note that this only works, if the gender of the words has been set up properly. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Word Types|Word Types]] for more information how to change the word type to the right gender.

[[File:Parley articles and gender 0-9-4 001.png|500px]]

When you give the correct answer the following is shown and you go ahead practicing by clicking on '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley articles and gender 0-9-4 002.png|500px]]

Should you give the wrong answer the following is shown and you go ahead practicing by clicking on '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley articles and gender 0-9-4 003.png|500px]]

You can stop practicing anytime by clicking on '''Stop Practice'''.
<span id="Comparison Forms of Adjectives and Adverbs"></span>
====Comparison Forms of Adjectives and Adverbs====

On the '''Practice''' screen select '''Comparison Forms''' and then click on '''Start Practice''' to go ahead.

This only works when the conjugation forms of the word have been entered in the vocabulary collection. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Entering Comparison Forms|Entering Comparison Forms]].

[[File:Parley comparison eng-deu 0-9-4 002.png|500px]]

The exercise requires you to enter the comparison forms for the term shown. In this case the translation of the English word ''old'' to German. The German language has three forms: ''absolute, comparative'' and ''superlative''. To go on with the exercise just click on '''Continue'''.

[[File:Parley comparison eng-deu 0-9-4 003.png|500px]]
<span id="Conjugations"></span>
====Conjugations====

To practice conjugations choose the '''Conjugations''' mode and the tenses you wish to exercise.

In the document the conjugation forms of the words have to be entered in order to allow this practice mode to work. See [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Entering Conjugation Forms|Entering Conjugation Forms]].

[[File:configure_practice_conjugation.png|500px]]

Then click on '''Start Practice'''. You are required to enter the correct conjugation forms according to the tense shown. To go ahead click on '''Continue'''

[[File:Parley_practice_conjugation.png|500px]]
<span id="Vocabulary Editing"></span>
= Vocabulary Editing  =
[[Image:Parley edit main.png|500px]]

== Setup  ==

Before you start using a vocabulary collection or create your own it is helpful to understand the different elements in Parley and configure them accordingly. The next sections will guide you step by step through this process. There are several locations in Parley for settings:

*'''File→Properties''' This is the place for the "General Document Properties", meaning some information about your vocabulary collection and yourself. 
*'''Edit→Languages''' Find here settings around the languages you use 
*'''Practice→Configure Practice''' Here are settings how you practice your vocabulary. Depending on what you want to do during the specific learning session you change them on the fly. 
*'''Settings→Configure Parley''' For more general and display settings

=== About the Collection  ===

Entering meta data like a title and your contact info is relevant if you plan to make your collection available for other people. Use '''File→Properties''' to edit the data.

[[File:Parley document properties.png|500px]]

===Vocabulary Columns===

Depending on what your learning sessions are going to be about it can be relevant to have further Vocabulary Columns show up in your edit section. To choose these columns select '''View''' from the Menu bar and then '''Vocabulary Columns'''. There you can determine if the columns for ''Pronunciation, Word Type, Synonym, Antonym, Example, Comment'' and/or ''Paraphrase'' are to be shown.

[[File:Parley trainer eng-deu 0-9-4 010.png|500px]]
<span id="Languages and Grammar"></span>
=== Talen en grammatica ===

Set up some grammar details to let Parley help you. Use '''Edit→Languages''' to pull up the grammar dialog.

Articles in English are simply '''the''' which is the definite article and '''a''' as indefinite article. Most other languages have more articles which can be filled in at the articles tab.<br />

For conjugations the personal pronouns should be filled out. Most languages do not have different conjugation forms for he/she/it, in that case, you should ''not'' check '''Male/Female have different conjugations'''! Simply enter the pronouns for all three forms. Personal Pronouns in English:

{| cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" border="1" style="width: 348px; height: 91px;"
|-
| 
| Enkelvoud
| Meervoud
|-
| 1e persoon
| ik
| wij
|-
| 2e persoon
| jij
| jullie
|-
| 3e persoon
| hij/zij/het
| zij
|}

<br />Tenses: Depending on the language, you can enter the right tenses which you later want to learn how to conjugate. Examples are: Simple Present, Simple Past, Future I etc.

Btw. by clicking on the '''Add New Language''' button you can add an additional language to your collection.

====Let's Have a Closer Look at Spanish ====

On the '''General''' tab the basic language settings, like here

*'''Taal''' = Spaans
*'''Naam''' = Spaans
*'''Toetsenbord''' = de (voor Duits)

You can leave '''Keyboard layout''' empty if you are not sure about what you are using. Parley will then simply take the standard layout of your computer.

[[File:Parley new_document_lang_general.png|500px]]

Let's have a look at the '''Articles''' tab: Spanish knows only male and female nouns, therefore the field '''Neutral''' remains empty.

[[File:Parley new_document_lang_articles.png|500px]]

Spanish '''Personal Pronouns''' have multiple forms for 3rd person singular and 1st, 2nd and 3rd person plural. To remain consistent, the possibilities should be entered with a '''/''' between the two forms.

[[File:Parley new_document_lang_personalpronouns.png|500px]]

Under '''Tenses''' you will find the various tenses that are available for a verb form. You can add to the tenses that are already there by clicking on '''New''', modify with '''Modify''' or in case something does not actually exist simply '''Delete''' the tense after having it selected.

[[File:Parley new_document_lang_tenses.png|500px]]

== Lessen ==

On the left you have a list of lessons. If you started a new collection, this list might be empty except for one lesson that was created by default for you.

If you cannot see the list of lessons, you might have to enable it in the View menu - '''View→Lessons'''.

The check boxes in front of the lesson name show which lessons are currently included in your practice. The number next to it is the number of words in the lesson.

=== Nieuwe les ===

Add a new lesson: Select where this lesson belongs to, for example the collection '''My Spanish Lessons'''.

[[File:Parley new lesson1.png|500px]]

In the Lesson menu, select '''New Lesson'''.

[[File:Parley new lesson2.png|500px]]

Please make sure to select the right point in the tree structure of lessons before selecting '''New Lesson'''. In our case, wanting a ''Sub-Lesson'' of '''Collection: My Spanish Lessons''' it is exactly that one that needs to be selected before going ahead with '''New Lesson'''.

=== Moving, Renaming and Deleting Lessons  ===

To change the name of a lesson, double click it, or right click on the lesson and choose '''Rename'''. You can also delete it this way (but you'll lose its contents also then).

If you don't like the arrangement of lessons, you can move a lesson with the mouse. You can drag it onto another lesson, then it will become a child of that lesson.

=== Splitting a Lesson  ===

If your lessons grow too big, you can choose to split them up to make learning easier in small units. 20 words for a lesson is probably a good size. Right click a lesson, or use '''Lesson→Split Lesson into Smaller Lessons''' and the lesson will be separated into child lessons. You can choose to randomize the words that are put into the new lessons before assigning them, or to keep them in order.

=== What is Shown in the Table  ===

Parley shows always the words of the lesson that you have currently selected. You can enable to see the words in sub-lessons contained in this lesson also. Use '''Lesson→Show Entries from Child Lessons''' to enable this. That way, you can browse all words by selecting the document lesson at the very top.

<br />
<span id="Word Types"></span>
== Word Types  ==

Parley lets you associate word types with the words. Word types are for example: Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives and Adverbs.

In order to work with word types, enable the word type tool: '''View→Word Types'''

You can categorize the word types just like lessons.

If you want to see all words of a certain type - e.g. all nouns, simply select the noun category, and you will see only nouns in the table.

The easiest way to set the word type, is to drag and drop a word onto its type. You can even do this with multiple words at the same time.

=== Words or Sentences  ===

=== Adding New Vocabulary  ===

Use '''Add New Entry''' in the toolbar to add new words. You can start typing the word in the first language right away. By default Parley lets you enter another word when you press <keycap>Enter</keycap> in the last row, so you don't have to keep using the '''Add''' button. After entering the first word, press  <keycap>Tab</keycap> to go to the next language.

=== Editing Words  ===

If you want to replace a word, select its entry and start typing. To change the word instead, double click the entry and you can change the contents of the cell without losing the old word.

Press <keycap>Tab</keycap> to go to the next word. <keycap>Enter</keycap> leaves the editing mode. You can use the arrow keys to move around.

== Synoniemen ==

Synonyms are hard to set up and do not always work really well. Here is how you set them up in any case:

*Use '''View→Synonyms''' to see the synonyms tool. 
*Select first word (A) you want to make synonyms, then click on the second word (B) 
*The button in the synonym tool changes it's text to '''A and B are synonyms'''

The words will now be shown as connected in the synonym tool and can be recognized as synonyms in the practice.

== Afbeeldingen toevoegen ==

First show the image tool by selecting '''View''' in the menu bar and then clicking on '''Image'''. The checkbox in front of '''Image''' will then be activated. This will show up the picture section on the right hand side of the Parley screen

To add an image to a word make sure the word is highlighted. In the image section on the right hand side click on the '''Folder icon''' and choose the picture you wish to associate.

[[File:Parley trainer eng-deu 0-9-4 006.png|500px]]

== Adding Sound ==
First show the sound tool by selecting '''View''' in the menu bar and then clicking on '''Sound'''. This will show up the sound section on the right hand side of the Parley screen.

To add a sound to a word make sure the word is highlighted. In the sound section on the right hand side click on the '''Folder icon''' and choose the sound you wish to associate.

[[File:Parley trainer eng-deu 0-9-4 007.png|500px]]
<span id="Entering Comparison Forms"></span>
== Entering Comparison Forms ==

In order to enter comparison forms, make sure the comparison forms tool is enabled. You open it with the menu: '''View→Comparison Forms'''

Selecteer eerst een woord dat een bijvoeglijk naamwoord of bijwoord is.

[[File:Parley edit comparison form 1.png|500px]]

Klik daarna op de knop '''Bijvoeglijk naamwoord''' of '''Bijwoord''' in het hulpmiddel voor vergelijkingsvormen.

[[File:Parley edit comparison form 2.png|500px]]

Voer de vergelijkingsvormen is.

[[File:Parley edit comparison form 3.png|500px]]

Nu kunt u de modus [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Comparison Forms of Adjectives and Adverbs|Vergelijkingsvormen oefenen]] gebruiken.
<span id="Entering Conjugation Forms"></span>
== Vervoegingen invoeren ==

In order to enter conjugation forms, make sure the conjugation forms tool is enabled. You open it with the menu: '''View→Conjugation'''

First select a word that is a verb.

[[File:Parley edit conjugation 1.png|500px]]

Click the '''... is a Verb''' button in the conjugations tool.

[[File:Parley edit conjugation 2.png|500px]]

After selecting the right tense in the tense selection box, enter the conjugation forms.

The tenses can be configured for each language: [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Languages and Grammar|Languages and Grammar]].

Now you can use the [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Conjugations|Conjugations Practice]] mode.

==Creating New Files==

In this section we will describe how to create new files and this not only with the usual vocabulary learning part, but also for grammar exercises, mathematics etc.

===New Collection: Vocabulary English-German===

In this section we describe how you can create a vocabulary training file including pictures and sound. In a second stage we will also add adjectives and verbs. This is a very complete example and therefore quite long. Eventually you will not need all points for your project.

Since we wish to add sound-files and pictures, we should make sure that these will all be in one folder which for convenience is being called ''eng-deu''. Our data file we create with Parley will be saved in the same folder. This will help a lot when you decide to share your work with others.

So this is what we have in terms of sound files and pictures:

Let's start from the '''Start Page''' which is shown once you launch Parley:

[[File:Parley_initial_screen_0-9-4.png|500px]]

Click on the button '''Create a New Collection'''.

The '''General Document Properties''' page shows up which is being filled as follows (just adapt to what your file is about):

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_001.png|500px]]

Next click on '''OK'''. The following screen asks you to set up the language details. Here we don't want to change anything and therefore we just click on '''OK'''.

As a first step, let's create the vocabulary part. We will think about the addition of the sound files and pictures in a second stage. This is what the lesson looks like:

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_002.png|500px]]

Before we do anything else, let's save the file to the folder with the pictures and sound-files. Click on the '''Save''' icon and select the folder using the navigation. In this example we will call the file '''Trainer eng-deu''' - once you entered the name just click on save.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_003.png|500px]]

If you now check your folder where the sound-files and pictures are, you will also find the file '''Trainer eng-deu.kvtml'''

Let's have a short look at the words we want to add: ''apple, bird, cat, cherry, cow, orange, pear, snake, strawberry''. We have animals and fruit and therefore we decide to create two lessons that are called: '''Animals''' and '''Fruit'''.

We now rename '''Lesson 1''' to '''Animals''' and then we add a lesson called '''Fruit'''. Right-click on '''Lesson 1''' and choose '''Rename Lesson''' from the options shown. Now '''Lesson 1''' is highlighted and you can simply overwrite it by typing in '''Animals'''. When done, hit the <keycap>Enter</keycap> key. Now right-click on '''Collection: Vocabulary trainer E...''' which is the root of the lesson tree and choose '''New Lesson''' from the options shown. In the new field write '''Fruit''' and hit the <keycap>Enter</keycap> key again.

First, let's insert the animals. Please click on the lesson '''Animals''' and you will get an empty table you can fill in. Click with your mouse in the first field, and insert the source terms.  Then, insert the target terms in the second column. Once you've inserted all 4 English animal names with their German translation the screen looks like this:

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_004.png|500px]]

In our case we want only 4 entries in the animals lesson. There are many empty lines that should be deleted. To do this click on the first empty field, and keep the <keycap>Shift</keycap> key pressed while clicking on the last empty field. All lines to be deleted will be highlighted. Then, press the <keycap>Del</keycap> key and confirm the question ''Do you really want to delete the selected entries?'' by clicking on the '''Delete''' button.

Let's add the fruit terminology. Just click on the lesson named '''Fruit'''. This second lesson is completely empty. Since we have five fruit terms we need to add five lines. Therefore, press the <keycap>Ins</keycap> key five times, and then, just like before, we add our terminology.

Don't forget to save every now and then ...

A click on the root of our lesson tree '''Collection: Vocabulary trainer E...''' and Parley will show us all entries that are present in the two lessons:

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_005.png|500px]]

Time to add sound and images. First of all we need to activate the Image and Sound views. From the menu bar select '''View''' and there click on '''Image''' and then '''Sound'''. Once these options are activated, two new sections are shown on the right hand side of the Parley editing screen: ''Image'' and ''Sound''.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_006.png|500px]]

Select the English word ''apple'' by clicking on it. It is highlighted, so let's add the picture. In the image section on the right hand side click on the '''Folder''' icon and choose the picture you wish to associate.

To add the pronunciation for the English apple, do the same in the Sound section, selecting the relevant sound file.

By clicking on the '''Play''' button in the sound tool you can listen to the pronunciation.

The screen will then look like this:

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_007.png|500px]]

Then click on the German translation '''Apfel'''. The field is now highlighted to indicate the selection. You will note the picture with the apple is associated also to the German term. In the sound section select the pronunciation, just like before.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_008.png|500px]]

Just go ahead like this for all terms.

Time to add adjectives and verbs as lessons to our project. So just do as before with the lesson ''Fruit'' and create two new lessons: ''Adjectives'' and ''Verbs''. Let's assume we will add ''big, small, old, young, narrow'' in the adjective lesson and ''to go, to come, to buy, to drink, to eat'' in the verb lesson.

The following shows a screenshot with all inserted terminology. Now, words are mixed and it would be nice to see what is a ''noun, adjective'' or ''verb''.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_009.png|500px]]

As the next step we are going to show the '''Word Type'''. Select '''View''' in the menu bar and then select '''Vocabulary Columns'''. We activate '''Word Type''' for ''English'' and ''German'' by clicking on the checkbox in front of '''Word Type'''. Then click on '''OK''' to accept the changes.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_010.png|500px]]

By clicking on the fields in the column '''Word Type''' you can select the word type and for those languages where nouns have a gender you can also select the ''Noun/Gender'' combination. Below the '''Word Type''' column with part of the selections already done.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_011.png|500px]]

Once we have specified all the word types, we will first consider ''Adjectives'', adding '''Comparison Forms'''  to them. So let's move to the ''Adjectives'' lesson only.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_012.png|500px]]

To show the '''Comparison Forms''' on the right hand side of the screen, select the '''View''' in the menu bar and activate the '''Comparison Forms''' checkbox.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_013.png|500px]]

Edit the '''Comparison Forms''' by adding '''Comparative''' and '''Superlative''' to the single adjectives. First, click on the adjective for which you wish to add the comparison forms, in our case ''big'', and add ''bigger'' and ''biggest''. Then, continue with the next adjective to complete, until all comparison forms have been entered.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_014.png|500px]]

Finally, let's consider the '''Conjugation''' form of the '''Verbs'''. Select the '''Verbs''' lesson and then activate the conjugation section on the right hand side by selecting '''View''' from the menu bar and activating '''Conjugation'''. As an example we edit the present tense ('''Präsens''') form of ''gehen''. Please first select '''Präsens''' from the drop down menu and then add the verb forms.

[[File:Parley_trainer_eng-deu_0-9-4_015.png|500px]]

This needs to be done for all verbs, and in all possible tenses.

Once you are done you can start to practice by clicking on the [[Special:myLanguage/Parley/Manual#Vocabulary Practice|Practice]] button.

===New Collection: Single Names and Collective Names===

This exercise was created for the 3rd class of an Italian primary school. Pupils are supposed to connect single names with collective names, such as ''tree'' → ''woods''

When you start Parley you get the start page, eventually also listing some previously used files (that you cannot see here).

[[File:Parley_initial_screen_0-9-4.png|500px]]

Click on '''Create a New Collection''' and the following screen with empty or partly filled fields will show up:

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names1.jpeg|500px]]

Fill in the title, here '''nomi singoli e collettivi''', your name, e-mail address, in the '''Comment''' section you can write down a more detailed description, select your category and license. Then there we have something special: instead of indicating the first and second language, like it normally would happen, we added ''nome singolo'' (single name) and ''nome collettivo'' (collective name). '''Setup Grammar Details''' and '''Download Grammar''' are not needed here. In the screenshot they are still activated - please deactivate them by just clicking on the checkboxes. When you are done, please click on '''OK'''.

The '''Properties''' page for ''nome singolo'' comes up and here you see it already with the necessary changes made:

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names4.jpeg|500px]]

On the left hand side you can see where the data you are adding belongs to. ''nome singolo''. Choose the language, here ''Italian'' and insert ''nome singolo'' in the following editable field. Then click on '''OK'''.

Now the '''Properties''' page for ''nome collettivo'' is shown:

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names5.jpeg|500px]]

Like before: choose ''Italian'' as language and insert ''nome collettivo'' and click on '''OK'''.

And now you can start to edit:

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names7.jpeg|500px]]

Just insert the ''nome singolo'' (single name) in the first column and the corresponding ''nome collettivo'' (collective name) in the second column.

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names8.jpeg|500px]]

If the number of available fields is not enough, just right-click anywhere on the edit section and choose '''Add New Entry'''. Don't forget to save your file every now and then. When you have finished adding all entries you will want to see if Practice mode works fine. Well just click on the '''Practice''' button right above the edit section and the page with the practice settings comes up:

[[File:Parley create new exercise collective names10.jpeg|500px]]

In this case '''Multiple Choice''' is a good option, but also '''Written''' will do fine. After choosing the Practice Mode just click on '''Start Practice''' and have fun.

== Getting Additional Collections ==

When you are on the '''Start Page''' you have the possibility to install Collections directly from the server, provided you are online. Just click on '''Download New Collections'''.

[[File:Parley welcome screen.png|500px]]

A window with many interesting collections opens. Just select what you find most interesting and click on '''Install'''. Then open the file to practice or edit.

[[File:Parley get new stuff 0-9-4 001.png|500px]]
<span id="Configure Parley"></span>
== Configure Parley ==

You can configure the appearance of Parley from the '''Start Page''' or from within the '''Edit section'''. Select '''Settings''' from the menu bar and then '''Configure Parley'''.

[[File:Parley configure parley 0-9-4 001.png|500px]]

=== Theme Tab ===

The configuration opens with the '''Theme''' section. This is the place where you can choose how Parley should greet you when launching it: an elegant '''Grey''' version, the all time busy '''Bees''' or the '''Fluffy Bunny''' for all those who love pink. Note that it could well be that '''Fluffy Bunny''' is not in your version: if you want it, read the following section.

Once you selected your preferred theme, click on '''OK'''.

Screenshots of the '''Bees''' and '''Fluffy Bunny''' themes:

[[File:Parley practice bees.png|thumb|200px]]
[[File:Parley practice fluffy.png|thumb|200px]]

And if these are not enough: you can click on '''Get New Themes''' to find more themes. Over time we hope that more and more themes come along. If you know how to create SVG graphics (for example with [https://inkscape.org/ Inkscape]), you can create your own theme and share it with the world.

[[File:Parley configure parley 0-9-4 002.png|500px]]

Additional themes can be found on [https://store.kde.org/browse/cat/357/order/latest/ store.kde.org]

=== General Tab ===

The '''General''' tab gives you some options regarding the behavior of Parley.

==== Open/Save options ====

'''Always load the last opened collection on start''' will immediately take you back to the vocabulary you were learning. Often you will use this together with the second option '''Save vocabularies automatically on close and quit''' because it's just handy not to have always answer the same question if changes (including learning results) should be changed or not. The option '''Create a backup every ... minutes''' can be very handy to help you save your work frequently. One less thing to think about.

Sometimes the import and/or export of text (CSV) files can be very handy and there you need the proper separator to elaborate data afterwards or to be able to read the data you got from somewhere else. Parley allows you to choose among various separators to make sure you can re-use your data.

==== Editing option ====

Here you can determine whether Parley automatically appends new rows while you are editing your vocabulary collection. This can be useful if you want to add many entries, before then splitting them up into various lessons. On the other hand, it can be good to have this option off if you want to work by creating lessons with a set maximum number of entries.

[[File:Parley configure parley 0-9-4 003.png|500px]]

=== View Tab ===

The '''View Settings''' allows you to change font and its size, very handy when you work on a netbook for example, and you can choose the '''Grade Colors''' you like best.

[[File:Parley configure parley 0-9-4 004.png|500px]]
