Verbbusters is optimised for use with the free Firefox Web Browser versions 2.0 or better, at a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher.
The site has also been tested on Opera 9, Safari 2.0 and Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7. Feedback from users of other browsers is appreciated. Which browser am I using?
Problem: My answer is right but it evaluates as wrong. Solution: There can be a number of reasons for this.
(a) User error: Make sure you have no extra blank spaces, capital letters or other typographical errors. Use the search function to check the database entry or look for the verb in the list.
(b) Application limitation: In some cases, there are several right answers but the application will recognise only the one or two most common usages. Use the help buttons to check and compare your answer with the answer(s) accepted by the application. Moreover, many verbs have more than one equivalent. Spanish pegar, for example, can mean hit,strike or stick. Use the search function to check the database entry.
(c) Other: If the problem persists, use the feedback form to notify the webmaster.
Problem: When I type an answer, I am offered alternatives. Solution: This is a question of telling your browser not to save the information you enter in forms. In Firefox choose Edit-> Preferences -> Privacy -> Saved Form Information and disable "Save information I enter in web page forms and the search bar". If you are using Internet Explorer, choose Tools -> Internet Options -> Content -> Autocomplete and uncheck Forms.
