as a complete beginner with no chinese knowledge whatsoever & without sounding like an idiot can anyone explain the right hand side of the Skritter screen, the screen seems to be split in 2, I am trying to workout what word i am learning it seems to have a sentence with some words in brackets….confused….thankyou

It sounds like you might be talking about the example sentence for the word. The other side of the study session window besides the writing canvas shows the word, it's definition, reading, example sentence, and mnemonic.
