Choosing a Password
Your password should ideally be more than 7 characters long as longer passwords are more secure. It is highly recommended that you choose an unique password for each site that you go to. Some people choose a phrase like "WhereTheMindIsWithoutFear" (a famous Tagore poem) so that they can easily remember their password. In the Welcome email, only the first and last two characters are shown for security reasons.
Each user needs to set up an unique identity on the system. Since we want to make sure that we can easily communicate with users, we have chosen an user's Email ID as the most practical and useful unique ID. The user's Name (separated as First Name and Last Name) is useful when communicating with them. Finally, we want to save the geographical location of a user to be sensitive to their time zone when communicating by phone or streaming video that may be useful for the learning process.
Please register by filling in the Registration form. Make sure that the email ID you enter is easily accessible to you. All system communications will be sent to this email. If an invalid email is entered, the registration will be immediately deleted.
The password should be more than 7 characters. Longer passwords are more secure. It is highly recommended that you choose an unique password for each site that you visit. Some people choose a phrase like "WhereTheMindIsWithoutFear" (a famous Tagore poem) so that they can easily remember their password. The password is not displayed on any online screen. In the Welcome email, only the first and last two characters are shown for security reasons. If you forget the password, you will have to register again, and all your usage history will be lost.
After successful registration, an email will be sent to you with
Subject: Welcome to supriyosen.net to acknowledge
successful registration, document your Profile and to provide a guide to the various capabilities of the site. Please save this email to remember your credentials. A database record is created on the supriyosen.net server to identify you for subsequent visits.
A registered user can use multiple devices and only needs to login from each device as necessary. For example, I use an iMac, an iPad, and an iPhone. For testing, I also have set up a Windows 10 and a Linux Ubuntu 14 under VirtualBox, an App that runs under Mac OS. Only one registration is required.
Since Registration sets up your profile, you should Register again if you want to change your Password, Name or Location. If you want to change your Email ID, you need to register as a new user. The history of your activities can be manually coordinated by sending an email to supriyosen.net@gmail.com.
The registration record on the server will be removed after six months of inactivity or on your emailed request. Registered users will get an activity status report by email twice a month.
Login
For your convenience, the system has been designed to remember your Login credentials on any computer, tablet or smartphone for 90 days from your last visit. If you are a frequent visitor, you can expect to be "auto logged-in" and go directly to the site,
Browser settings on some computers may restricts how long login credentials will be remembered. Public computers like the local Library or Internet Cafes usually reset every day. In these cases, the auto-login will not be effective and you will have to Login every time.
If you are not auto logged-in when you access the site, please Login using the login panel.
Take a page with Bangla text on your site and convert it to Assisted Bangla Format
To keep this guide simple, let us say that the Source HTML page contains
<style>
.teal {color:#096;font-size:24px;}
</style>
<img src=https://supriyosen.net/bangla/images/sen.jpg>
<br>
<span class=teal>নমস্কার, আমার নাম <b>সুপ্রিয় সেন</b> । </span>
<p>
'এইকথাটা' আমার অভিধানে নেই, কিন্তু 'এই' এবং 'কথাটা' আছে ।
and renders like
নমস্কার, আমার নাম সুপ্রিয় সেন ।
'এইকথাটা' আমার অভিধানে নেই, কিন্তু 'এই' এবং 'কথাটা' আছে ।
The Target Source HTML should have each of the Bangla words with a mouseover action that shows up with the popup display as in
<span onmouseover="nhpup.popup('নমস্কার no‧mos‧kar Hello');">নমস্কার and renders like this
নমস্কার
Put your mouse over the word নমস্কার above and you will see a popup window.
The popup has three parts
The Bangla word (eg. নমস্কার)
The Phonetic pronunciation of the Bangla word written in English, including syllable markers (eg. no‧mos‧kar)
The English meaning of the word (eg. Hello)
The display can have CSS applied to it to make it more aesthetic.
The conversion from Source to Target is done by the Assisted Reading of Bangla Text App which is in the Practice Resources Section of the site.
The App takes the Bangla text (with HTML) and "processes" it.
Extracts every word in the text.
Looks up the word in a Public Dictionary.
Produces a list of all Bangla words and their corresponding English meanings.
Reformats the original text by adding a mouseover event with each Bangla word such as
<span onmouseover="popup('আমার amar my');">আমার</span>.
A Javascript function popup.js creates a popup window as you mouseover the word আমার.
The Public Dictionary currently has about 31,000 words. If you use the Assisted Applications, you will also get the ability to add/update words in the dictionary. Any changes to the dictionary will then be available to everybody else from then on.
