How To Use Vocab Lists
（抱歉，中文版晚点才会有！）
Sometimes, when you’re using the language phrasebooks to find a phrase in a different language, you might see a part of the phrase highlighted in red.
A red highlight means that this word is part of a Vocab List.
What is a Vocab List?
A Vocab List is a list of options which will you can use to make the sentence apply to you.
Let’s take this phrase as an example:
I was born in China.
You can tap on the Vocab List item (in this case, “China”) and a list of possible words and phrases which you can replace “China” with will appear. Choose the one which applies to you to change the phrase.
For this example, let’s select the word “the United States”. You can tap on the + beside “the United States” to display a guide on how “the United States” is said in the language you want to record, along with a play button for the vocal guide audio:
Romanization (Pink)

Tap on the check mark beside “The United States” to use it in the phrase.
Now you can go ahead and record a voice clip of yourself saying the phrase you want to send!
