Default fonts line by line

I'm doing line by line translation. How can I easily use different fonts for
alternating lines?

Default fonts line by line

Assuming you're pressing Enter at the end of each line, so each line
is a separate paragraph:

Define two paragraph styles, one for each font.* In the definition of
each style, specify the other style as the "style for following
paragraph".

*In case you don't know, to define a style, click Format Styles and
Formatting (Word 2003 and earlier) or press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S (Word
2007) to open the Styles pane, then click the New Style button.
