So I’ve been trying to learn Spanish and Chinese recently, and as a programmer, I’ve also been making a few tools to help me with it! Right now, the first works, and the second is…. well it kinda works, but it’s more in-progress
Generates Emoji-Audio-Text flashcards with audio in a bunch of languages (meant to be used with Anki). The idea is that it’s better to avoid using your native tongue when learning a language, so use common visual images (Also, please help fix my translations 😂)! But my friend just vetted the Japanese deck, and I’ve been updating the Mexican Spanish deck as I go, so maybe those ones are pretty okay right now.
For reading e-books with select-to-translate, so I can read a book in another language, and highlight when I don’t know a word. I want to make it create flashcards from the words I highlight.
