Getting Information About a Word To search for a word, type the word in the entry field WORD and press RETURN. The word processor starts searching for the word. What happens next depends on whether the word is found in the dictionary. When the Word is Found When the word on the DESKTOP REFERENCE screen is found in the dictionary, the INFORMATION screen appears. This screen shows the correct hyphenation position(s) for the word and, when available, a list of definitions. « DESKTOP REFERENCE » HYPHENATION: dis-tin-guish MEANING(S): Verb: Verb: Verb: Verb: Verb: to cause to be eminent or recognized. to make noticeable or different. to perceive and fix the identity of to perceive with a special effort of the senses or the mind to recognize as being different :meaning.#4.i.C4#*507.5. 4;(.l'; :"VARME!]!]EERE:M.ERY6 HYPHENATION: This line displays the specified word with hyphens inserted to show where the word should break at the end of a line. Standard capitalization is also shown. NOTE: "NOT AVAILABLE" appears in the HYPHENATION line if the hyphenation information is not available. MEANING(S): This area displays one or more definitions for the specified word (if available). A definition is made up of two parts: 1. Part of speech (verb, noun, adj., adv.). 2. Meaning of the word. The same word can often be used as a verb, noun, or other part of speech. In addition, the same part of speech (verb, for instance) can appear more than once in the MEANING(S) area. This happens when a word has different meanings even when used as the same part of speech. For example, "enclose," as a verb, can mean "to shut in on all sides" or "to surround and advance on." You can select a meaning to see corresponding synonyms by using the cursor and pressing RETURN. You can use the function menu for other options. See Using the Function Menu on page 240.
