How to merge two dictionaries
Follow this procedure to merge two dictionaries:
- In the Dictionary menu, select the Merge command to launch the merge assistant.
- The open dictionary will serve as the destination: the words already in it will appear in the list on the left.
- Using the Search button under the list on the right, open the second dictionary containing the words to be added to the destination dictionary.
- Click the Next button and a screen will appear with a summary of the operation.
- If the dictionary that you wish to merge contains a word already in the destination dictionary, a window will ask you to make a choice:
- Keep the original word
- Keep the word of the merged dictionary only
- Keep both words
If you no longer wish this window to appear, tick the “Apply to the rest of the list” box. It will merge the rest of the list using the selected settings.
- Click the Finish button to complete the merger and to return to editing the merged dictionary.
