Field notes
The lesson selector treats everything before the learner’s chosen point as known; its example shows 259 known words through lesson 7. Reading controls offer zhuyin, pinyin, both, tones only, or no annotation, and the sample marks new and review vocabulary in context. Character-writing practice is also described, though the displayed demo reports that its strokes could not be loaded.
