The app is for learning vocabulary in a second language. Currently, the app's dictionary is for a Russian speaker learning English. (But it also works for an English speaker learning Russian!)

There are various levels. In level 1, the app displays a word and its translation. If the user knows this word, you can click the "check mark" icon (near the top left) and the word will not appear again. (You can reset this on the Settings dialog.) Otherwise, click the Next button. After a number of words have been shown, level 2 begins. There are two columns of buttons. The user should click one word on the left and the matching word on the right. Keep going until all words have been matched. This repeats with another batch of words.

At some point, level 3 starts. Here, you have to type the matching word. I haven't gone beyond this point much, but there are other screens and word-matching activities as far as I can see.

delf, please feel free to provide a fuller explanation!

for level 6, by default loaded English keyboard to type the words, but you can load any other language, listing all the letters in the file "lan.kbd". The name of the file as prescribed in the file "word.dic" before the description of the dictionary in the format:
# lan

For example:
#eng
word1; transcription1; translation1
word2; transcription2; translation2
word 3; transcription 3; translation 3
Thanks, for your explanations.
