How to quickly translate a list of words and import them to mnemosyne

[szymon]

Hello,

I use mnemosyne mostly to learn foreign languages. I made a really simple tool to translate wordlists. It might be useful for someone. You can note words when you read something, then quickly translate and import them to mnemosyne. Unzip attached file and open index.html. I can add more languages. Feel free to edit the code. 

Unfortunately the dictionary has a limit of requests that can be done at once, I've asked them how big it is (and I'm still waiting for response).

Thanks!

Peter

    Hi, szymon.
I am surprised by the lack of interest to your program. 
I tried to VIEW it -- and I could not open it.
There is no 'extract' option under the Right button.
Can u help ?

Thanks.

Hi Vit ;)

And I'm surprised that you are interested. I know that code is dirty and design outdated, but it "works".

Anyway, no idea, but:
1) I assume you have installed WinZip-like program. Try to download one of attached archives.
2) Check it online: http://appemo.com/vittranslator/ Press CTRL + S and have your own copy.

Screenshot for you. Feature requests are also welcome ;)

(Is there something about Ctrl+2 that suddenly ends and sends??)

Anyway, as I was trying to say, it might be easier to work with Google Translate (no word limit). If you convert your list of words to a single-column table, then paste the column into GTrans, it will give a column of translations that you can paste (PasteUnformatted in Word) back into an (inserted) column in your original table. Convert this to a tab-delimited table, and you're ready to import into Mnemosyne.

The nice thing about GTrans is that it can read the list aloud (put ' ... ' after each word so they're read as a list, not an attempt at uninterrupted speech). If you record this (Audacity), you can cut the audio into individual words for Mnem, or you can just use uncut for practicing audio comprehension.
