- How to Play
The objective of the game is to correctly spell the Sinhala word translation for a English word that appears on the game screen. Use the on screen keyboard to type in Sinhala letters into the text box. For instance, if the word 'mouth' is shown in the game screen, type 'කට' (the Sinhala word translation for mouth) in the text box. Then click the Ok to see if you spelled the word correctly. If you are correct a tick (
) appears. A cross (
) if the word is spelled incorrectly. You are given a score for a correct answer.
The score is presented as partially filled or complete stars (see the Scoring section below). You can go to the following level by clicking the Next button. Here another English word appears and you need to repeat the process.
Spelling of the Sinhala words becomes more difficult as you progress through the levels. In the Standard Mode there are 40 levels to complete the game. Quick and Long game modes have 20 and 80 levels respectively.NB: There could be certain English words which can be accurately translated by several different Sinhala words. In the current app only the most typically used word corresponds to a correct answer. Note that rules of typing Sinhala content in web pages also apply here. Notably, vowels are typed as a single character without conjoined signs.
- Sinhala Typing
Mouse click on a key (button) in the on-screen keyboard generates the character in the selected location (cursor position or highlighted range) in the text box.
- Vowels (අ,ඉ,උ...) are typed in as a single character. Signs (්,ා,ැ...) generally are not conjoined to vowels.
- Consonants (ක,ග,ච...) should be typed before the sign even if the sign appears prior to the consonant in the sequence of characters ( e.g. ක then ෙ produces කෙ).
- Certain signs keys produces varying character shapes based on the attached consonant ( eg. ම + ු → මු whereas ක + ු → කු and ක + ් → ක් whereas ම + ් → ම් ).
- Scoring
In the Sinhala Words - Spelling Game 2 app scores are presented as partially filled or complete stars. Scores are given for each correct answer. The weight of the score is based on the difficultly in spelling the word. At initial levels you are given a partially filled star for each correct answer, whereas, in the final levels you score a complete star for each word spelled correctly. Cumulative tally of your star score is shown in the section above the image screen. The table below shows the weight of each scoring unit in the game.
