1 of 9: Click on the front cover to open the dictionary, then notice that the list of locations you got is up at the top of the screen.
2 of 9: Click on it to bring it down, then click on it again (or right-click anywhere) to push it back up.
3 of 9: Check the top name on the list to see that its leftmost symbol looks like the capitalized version of the Greek letter pi.
4 of 9: Push the list back up, then look at the tabs along the right side of the dictionary's right page until you find one with that symbol on it.
5 of 9: It's a little more than halfway down, and it also has the letter P on it.
6 of 9: Click on that tab to turn to that section of the dictionary, then bring down the list of locations again.
7 of 9: Look over the two dictionary pages to find the exact item that's on the top of the list, then push the list back up so you can click on its dictionary entry. Doing so will bring the list down and cross the top item off of it.
8 of 9: Repeat that process with the other three locations to find them all.
9 of 9: Below is a list of dictionary entries that you need to click on (in any order) to do the translations.
