DualMiniReader is a minimalistic bilingual reading system.

It features an intuitive interface which will be explained in the next section.

DualMiniReader features two display modes:

• Side-by-side mode:

  In this mode, text content in two different languages is shown in columns on each side of the screen.

• Vertical mode:

  In this mode, full text content for one language is shown on the top of the screen, while the bottom shows translations of individual words or phrases in a second language.

When the user clicks a word, the equivalent word in the translated text is highlighted in green.

(In Vertical display mode, the translated text is displayed in a text box.)

If the word is better understood in the context of a phrase, then all the words constituting the phrase are highlighted.

If the clicked word doesn't have a direct translation, it is highlighted with a red color rather than a green one.

The "Settings" menu in DualMiniReader is represented by this icon:

The following settings are available within it:

• UI

  This setting allows the user to set the interface language.

  (Note that this doesn't set the language for reading content.)
• abc abc

  This sets the font size.

• This sets the interface to Dark Mode.

• abc | abc

  This sets the interface to Side-by-side mode.

• abc abc

  This sets the interface to Vertical mode.

DualMiniReader features game modes which are accessible from the Settings Menu:

• Word Match (Side-by-Side mode):

  In this game mode, words on the left column are highlighted at random. You get points by clicking the equivalent word on the right column.

• Fill-in-the-Blank (Vertical mode):

  In this game mode, words are cut out from the text. You win by putting the words back in the right places.

In DualMiniReader, you can use the arrow keys to cycle through words in a text:

Select a word first and then you can navigate through the remainder of the text using the arrow keys.
