Language Views

If you're searching for a particular definition then sometimes it's useful to change the view. There are 2 views to choose from: the target language view and the native language view. Both are available under the View menu. The target language view is the default and recommended view. When selected, both the theme list and the lexical item list will display text in the target language. This is preferable since this is the language you're trying to learn. However, in some cases you may not remember the lexical item that you're searching for in the target language. If you're pretty sure it exists in your lexicon then changing to the native language view will help you find it. This causes the two lists to display text in your native language (assuming that you've entered lexical item definitions in your native language). You may notice that the number of themes is the same in either view, but the number of rows in the lexical item list typically increases in the native language view. This is because some lexical items may have multiple meanings (i.e. definition entries) or contain multiple minor definitions. In the native language view definition entries and minor definitions are extracted from the definition of each lexical item and shown in the lexical item list. This means that some lexical items will have multiple rows within the list.
