Furch-Diaoulek is the union between a vocabulary manager and a helper to read texts written in one of the languages imperfectly known to you and that you try to learn.

Diaoulek is your vocabulary manager, it will allow you to make your every day learning in an optimal fashion. A word, which is to be learned, will be proposed to you 5 times every day, then 3 times every other day, then twice 4 days apart, then once after 8 days and finally it will be recalled after one month of delay. You can adapt these numerical values to the capabilities of your memory. Every word which is imperfectly known can be put again at the beginning of the cycle. The daily lesson is made of a set of words, each one at its own stage in the cycle. These words can come from lessons written by yourself or downloaded from the project's site. They can also be generated by Diaoulek from the bilingual dictionaries of the FreeDict project. The software can also use the Google's vocal synthesis Svox Pico for 5 Western-European languages. This is absolutly necessary for a language like English whose pronunciation may be rather loosely related to the spelling.

Furch is your reading help for the texts written in the language that you are learning. It will not attempt to make any translation, its only purpose is to avoid you the chore of turning the pages of a dictionary. Furch will select for you the articles of its data-base which it deems like correlated to the clicked word in the displayed text. You can then choose some of these articles and add them to your Diaoulek daily lesson. Many plain, uncoded texts can be found on the web and be downloaded. You can also capture with your mouse texts displayed on your screen by your web brooser. This is the case, for example, for the articles of Wikipedia in Breton.

Formerly, Furch started as an independant project, its integration into Diaoulek has begun in March 2016. That will allow Furch to use all the ressources of Diaoulek but the integration is not much advanced. At present time, only the application for Breton translated into French has begun.

Furch-Diaoulek is written in C and it is realeased under a Gnu/GPL licence . A documentation in English exists for the software and you can download the last stable version on that page.
