Template:C

From Wikibooks, open books for an open world

This template creates tooltips, i. e. small texts that show up when the mouse cursor hovers over a piece of text. It serves to show vocabulary translations in the language projects Freistil and Dutch. This template takes two or three parameters, making it flexible in dealing with word-by-word translations as well as more general translations that also provide the basic form of the translated term.

In the case of two parameters, the syntax is as follows:

{{C|Wörter|words}}

yielding the following output:

Wörter

"Wörter" is the text the reader will see. The tooltip provides the text "Wörter = words".

In the case of three parameters, the syntax is as follows:

{{C|Wörter|das Wort|word}}

yielding the output:

Wörter

Here, the tooltip provides the text "das Wort = words", that is it does not repeat the original text but shows a different one.
