Thank you Eric for the pointers!

But I think Django is complaining about me having too many Relationships in 
table Altword, or perhaps I have typed syntax wrong and missunderstand the 
error message?

Exception Value: 

<class 'navi_polls.models.Altword'> has more than 1 ForeignKey to <class 
'navi_polls.models.Word'>



#_______________________________________________________________________________

class Word(models.Model):
    rosword = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    direct_transl_word = models.CharField(max_length=120, blank=True, 
null=True)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.rosword
#_______________________________________________________________________________

class Altword(models.Model):
#class Altword(Word):
    rosword = models.*ForeignKey*(Word)
    alt_ros_word = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    alt_transl_word = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    articulate = models.CharField(max_length=200)
    wordy = models.*OneToOneField*(Word, related_name='altword_wordy', 
primary_key=True)
    votes = models.IntegerField(default=0)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published')

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.alt_ros_word
#_______________________________________________________________________________



First I tried to follow this example but then above error showed up:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.5/topics/db/examples/one_to_one/


Second time I tried this but I couldn't make it work:
http://catherinetenajeros.blogspot.se/2013/04/django-error-one-or-more-models-did-not.html

Third time I tried to play with "Multi-table inheritance".  But it only 
lead to Django complaining about duplicate fields which suggested that I 
needed to change field names in several files.  I didn't go down that path. 
 And it seemed "Multi-table inheritance" also complained about my first 
error message about having too many relationships in Altword table.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.0/topics/db/models/#id7


How should I proceed in order to find the solution to this problem?
