Java English Conjugator for Mobile Phones

To run the program you need J2ME, which is a kind of Java. Most new colour phones come with Java installed and are suitable. Check your manual if you are not sure. Of course, you can also run this program on a laptop or PC with Java installed, but you will need the J2ME extensions, available from j2me.sun.com.

To install the program, you need to copy the JAR file onto your phone. You can either do this by downloading it onto your computer and then copying it to your phone (eg with a cable), or by downloading it directly with your phone by entering the URL on your phone. You will probably find the first method cheaper. You do not need the JAD file to run the program, but it allows to easily check for future updates. You are hereby licensed to redistribute the program, but only with the attached JAD file.

To use the program, enter an English verb in infinitive form, and the program will output the three forms in order, infinitive, past participle and then past perfect. For example, if you enter "run", the program will display "run ran run". The usage is therefore "I run", "I ran [yesterday]" "I have run [before]".

This is the first version of this program, I hope that later versions will include:

• The ability to lookup verbs using any form (not just infinitive)
• A more complete verb list
• Conjugations for different pronouns (eg, I run, she runs).

To run the program you only need the JAR file below:

• JAR file 7.5k (required)
• JAD file .5k (optional)
• Sun J2ME toolkit (only for PC users)
