7 | each word or group of words (for example a translation, identification of the |
||
8 | grammatical form, the irregular form of a verb or a plural noun, etc.). |
||
4156 | bpr | 9 | You can also choose the <tt>flashcard</tt> option, |
10 | in which case the learner will have to click on |
||
11 | labels to hide certain words in the first phase of the exercise. |
