Verbs & Nouns
is a sophisticated application program for practicing inflection,
translation and pronunciation at the level of single words. Along with the
program, you need a dictionary module for the target language concerned. Features include inflection exercises, and translation exercises in both directions; the opportunity to record and play sound for single words; and exercises based on sound or pictures. You can also play various word-games. The program keeps a record of exercises and identifies the words that the student has difficulty with. You can create grammatical, thematic, or other groups for practicing on. There is generous provision for users to add notes
and comments. A Find feature allows each module to be used as a dictionary.
The existing modules allow users to delete or change existing entries to
suit their own needs, and to add extra words (a built-in 'inflection-generator'
simplifies the addition of inflected words). The program can also be used
as an authoring tool to write your own modules of inflected words for
any language.

Word List Maker
is a powerful and easy-to-use program, for generating sorted word-lists of several kinds from one or more text files. It can generate word-frequency lists, present the words in the reverse order of letters, indicate the number of letters contained in each word, or sort letters. The spell-checker function is available. The built-in grammar filter allows you to extract verbs, nouns, adjectives, and other parts of speech from any text file. You can also filter words which contain the chosen strings of characters or fulfill other criteria.
You can use it to make anagrams, word-frequency lists, indexes, spelling lists, to analyze words by their endings, and for many other tasks.

Restore Diacritic
is a specialized find-replace engine for text-files. The primary use is to restore diacritics in 7-bit pure ASCII texts. Many older electronic texts use pure 7-bit ASCII without accented letters. This program will attempt to restore the correct diacritics by using the conversion dictionaries. The process of restoring diacritics is sometimes ambiguous. 'Restore Diacritic' will not address this problem.
Another use of this program is performing a large number of the find-replace operations on entire words (typically 1 000 - 100 000 rules). For instance you can use it to translate certain words in the text-file from one language to another.
Ready made conversion modules are available.
