Summary: Give up the concept of 'original' language and make all
languages interchangeable
Product: kvoctrain
Version: unspecified
Platform: SuSE RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: peter peterandlinda com
ReportedBy: marc_heyvaert yahoo com
Version: 0.8.1 (using KDE KDE 3.2.1)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
OS: Linux
The kvoctrain file structure uses the concept o an 'original' language, qualifying the other \
languages as translations of this orginal language. While this makes sense for general usage of \
languages (A translates into B; A translates into C ==> B translates into C does not always \
hold!) It is valid for a lot of specific uses, read lexicologies. KVoctrain is limiting in this \
respect because you can not generate exercises between 'translated' languages.
A second wish, but closely related to this one is that the concept of 'language' may be too \
limiting as well. Take the example of Chinese. We have simplified characters, traditional \
characters, and a few popular romanisations (e.g. pinyin, Wade-Giles). Ideally one would have \
one kvoctrain file that contains all these elements with a possibility of generating quizzes \
between all these 'forms' of the chinese language, in all directions.
