Browse

In VocabularyShop, we can say that there is a multidimensional, highly customizable digital flashcard for every word in a user’s word selection. The Browse function is used to browse through these flashcards quickly and easily, putting vast amount of information on the user’s finger tip.

The contents of each flashcard consist of two parts: the basic information about the word and the Dictionary Dialog of the word.  The basic information part consists of pronunciation of the word, the primary definition of the word, possible sample sentence (s) and user notes of the word, as well as possible user attached image. Everything in this part is customizable. The Dictionary Dialog consists of the full dictionary definition of the word from the embedded dictionary and a full dictionary definition of the word from a selected online dictionary. Detail description can be found in the Dictionary Dialog of this guide.

Below are the steps to use the Browse function. You can also watch a video tutorial to learn how to use the Browse function.
