How to use C# to parse a glossary into database?

This should be a simple one, but I'm a beginner with C#.

Given a glossary list in the following format:

aptitude  
ability, skill, gift, talent

aqueous  
watery

arguably  
maybe, perhaps, possibly, could be

How can I parse this, and insert into a database table in the format:

TABLE: Term_Glossary
================================================
Term_Name  | Term_Definition                   |
================================================
aptitude   | ability, skill, gift, talent      |
------------------------------------------------
aqueous    | watery                            |
------------------------------------------------
arguably   | maybe, perhaps, possibly, could be|
================================================

Any help would be appreciated - thanks.

Update I realize the database structure is simple/inefficient - but really, the point of my question is the code to parse the kind of text found in the first exa开发者_运维问答mple, using C#. Thanks.

It may seem more complex at first, but you'll find it a lot easier in the long-term to think in terms of two tables:

===========================================
Term_ID     | Term_Name                   |
===========================================
1           | aptitude                    |
2           | aqueous                     |
3           | arguably                    |
===========================================

===============================================
Definition_ID  | Term_ID   | Definition_Name  |
===============================================
1              | 1         | ability          |
2              | 1         | skill            |
3              | 1         | gift             |
4              | 1         | talent           |
5              | 2         | watery           |
6              | 3         | maybe            |
7              | etc.etc.etc

Perhaps even think if you can normalise this further by having one table of words with IDs and a table of associations.

It looks to me like you would read the first line, save it to a variable, read the second line, save it to a second variable, then insert into the table where Term_Name = first variable, and Term_Definition = second variable.

So your logic would be like:

StreamReader SR;
string Term_Name;
string Term_Definition

SR = File.OpenText(filename);
Term_Name = SR.ReadLine();
while(Term_Name != null)
{
    Term_Definition = SR.ReadLine();
    // make your database call here to insert with these two variables.  I don't know what DB you are using.
    Term_Name = SR.ReadLine();
}
SR.Close();
