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 or TXT 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

Teams and player numbers

Quattuor has got a game mode for playing in two competitive teams. Both teams should be equally big and consist of 4 to 16 players. Each team player has to be allocated a number. Players with the same number compete against each other. When every student is assigned to his/her team and number, you can start the game.
