If you type a Spanish word into a flashcard set, then click on the button to look up the English translation you will almost always get No quick translation found, even for simple words in the dictionary here. If you then replace the No quick translation found with the correct English translation and click on Submit, the flashcard set is saved with No quick translation found as the English translation. You then have to edit the set to correct this.

Thank you for clarifying. I have been wondering about that. - rac1, Feb 5, 2012
There is a problem somewhere. It should not be doing this - sanlee, Feb 5, 2012

Hi Kevin, Yes for a long time we have had to enter the words manually. The quick translation for simple words has just come back and it only works sometimes. I just made a set and tried to use the quick translation method. If it did not give me the word or the word that I wanted, I entered the word myself. When I created the set, all the words that I had put in were correct -- I did not get the same error that you did.

Maybe I didn't wait long enough for my corrected English translation to be recognized. - KevinB, Feb 5, 2012
No, It should not take any time at all. - sanlee, Feb 5, 2012

In the lesson the word Ella used the é notation. In the review, the answers did not. Is there a rule I can use when to use the (whatchacallit...é,á,ó) symbols above the vowels? Has it to do with gender? How about when used in the middle of the word? Has it to do with inflection? wonderin? thanks, Bruce
