# Table

The Table feature displays and processes text in rows and columns, similar to a spreadsheet. It is especially useful when working with multiple dialects such as English, Dawb, and Leeg.
To open the table window, choose Table from the main menu, as shown below.

## Dialect Usage in Document

The following example shows text written in multiple dialects inside a document (not in a table). The inline command <Dialect:> determines how each line is read aloud.
<Dialect:English> Good morning, how are you?
<Dialect:Dawb> NyobZoo yav sawvNtxov, koj nyob li cas?
<Dialect:Leeg> NyobZoo yaav sawvNtxuv, koj nyob le caag?
<Dialect:English> I am fine, and you?
<Dialect:Dawb> Kuv nyobZoo, thiab koj nev?
<Dialect:Leeg> Kuv nyobZoo, hab koj nev?
<Dialect:English> I am fine too, and thank you.
<Dialect:Dawb> Kuv nyobZoo tibYaam, thiab uaTsaug.
<Dialect:Leeg> Kuv nyobZoo tuobYaam, hab uoTsaug.
<Dialect:English> My name is Paul.
<Dialect:Dawb> Kuv npe hu ua Pov.
<Dialect:Leeg> Kuv npe hu uo Pov.
<Dialect:> is an inline command that sets the reading dialect for the text that follows. Supported dialect commands include:

- <Dialect:English>
- <Dialect:Dawb>
- <Dialect:Leeg>
- <Dialect:Shib>

## Dialect Usage in Table

When text is placed inside a table, the software automatically uses the column headers (English, Dawb, Leeg) to determine the reading dialect.
The following table shows the same content from the Dialect Usage in Document section, but organized into columns.

Table
English | Dawb | Leeg
--- | --- | ---
Good morning, how are you? | NyobZoo yav sawvNtxov, koj nyob li cas? | NyobZoo yaav sawvNtxuv, koj nyob le caag?
I am fine, and you? | Kuv nyobZoo, thiab koj nev? | Kuv nyobZoo, hab koj nev?
I am fine too, and thank you. | Kuv nyobZoo tibYaam, thiab uaTsaug. | Kuv nyobZoo tuobYaam, hab uoTsaug.
My name is Paul. | Kuv npe hu ua Pov. | Kuv npe hu uo Pov.
