Enough! Now a little break!

Hello,

I think glossary has reach a point where I think it's enough... I will take a little break on it, only fixing bugs people found.

After this break, I'll come with grading and exporting features. Promise.

In the meantime, I'll be playing with webquests and a new hack I'm coding called Bookmark... It's on CVS, under contrib. I would like to heard opinions about it.

Regards,
Will

It is a great module and great features. I am half done with a pictorial dictionary for my site. One more thing to think about: if I use languages other than English, how do we deal with changing endings of words? Is there a way to interlink do - done, think - thought?? Or do we need to deal with all the morphological differences separately for every language??

Hi, Rimas,

I think that the keywords feature just might be what you are looking for.

Best regards,

Thank you for your answer! I didn't notice that I can use the keywords option that way. Yes,  it works. And yes, I am lazy... Some languages have 14-20 different forms for every noun, and even more forms for every verb... If there were a function to input just a stem, and match it with all possible endings and prefixes (that are defined and grouped in advance by a teacher), that would make life easier. Of course, that might require some major work, and there would always be exceptions... I might risk learning some php and writing a code that lists all possible word forms to imput it into the keywords section... For now, it works well!
Thanks again.

For whom? smiler

Serious... I think that such behavior could restrict the module a lot... Perhaps I'm wrong.

Well, for me it would. Because I would not have to enter around 14 words for every noun.
I am not talking about changing the very way this module works. I think the module is great, and it does a great job on my website. What I was referring to was an additional function that would allow me to generate all possible forms combining known prefixes and endings with the roots. and maybe copy/paste them into the keyword section of the module. I think it does not even need to be somehow incorporated into the module, because it would be either too abstract or too language specific... I do not think it is very complicated task to write such a script Just started reading php manual smiler

Art, which Tool are you using for this circle comment? (I like it, the shadows shows that it is not a part of the underlying page..)

My opinion is that I should probably send you and a couple of other super-Moodlers a chunk of my paycheck!
