Does Skritter allow for ellipses in entries? I have a lot of sentence constructions that I'm still rather sketchy on, some of which are the only contexts in which I use a certain word, and I would like to add constructions to my Skritter study list, such as:

幸亏...不然 - Luckily... otherwise
要是...就 - If... then

Yes, I know these are simple (as a lot of my vocab still is), but I'd really like to have these constructions in Skritter so I don't have to go out of my way to study them separately.

It does allow it - Chinesepod uses them a lot, and they appear in the Chinesepod lists. However, I'm not sure how to add them manually - it just tells me its invalid if I try and add new ones on the queue/list finder.

Yeah I think it's a limitation of the queue/list editor rather than of the backend.

Don't put them into the characters field, but put them in the reading and definition fields:

幸亏不然
xìngkuī ... bùrán
fortunately ... otherwise

I think that'll work.

Hmm, it would be nice to eventually see the ellipsis in the characters field (though the team's already doing plenty, so no pressure), but that solution will do for now.

I was considering how we'd go about mirroring the ellipses in the character fields, but I've decided that it would be more complexity than it's worth. Good suggestion, though.
