Vocabulary list
---------------

To play Quattuor you need a vocabulary list.
You can use the build-in vocabulary editor, which features easy and intuitive operation, to create new lists or edit existing ones.

Alternatively, you can create and edit vocabulary lists as CSV files by your own.
Please note that the application can only load files with the following data structure::

   [unit],[vocable],[translation]

Your vocabulary list should look like this example (separated by comma, semicolon or tab)::

   1,this,dies
   1,is,ist
   2,an,ein
   2,example,Beispiel


Game modes
----------

Quattuor can be played in three different game modes:

1. Team mode (for teams with 4 to 16 players, with vocabulary learning)
2. Duel mode (for two players, with vocabulary learning)
3. Classic mode (for two players, without vocabulary learning)

If you play in team mode, both teams should be equally big. Each player of a team has got a number. The players with the same number compete against each other.


Settings
--------

There are several general settings you may adapt to your needs.
