Hi all,
I discovered Tatoeba a few months ago and I really like the idea of this project (and I also try to be a regular contributor for Croatian).
I'm a developer and I played with the idea to use the Tatoeba database for a language learning app. After a few experiments I decided to implement it as an Android app.
So, just in case somebody wants to try it (and maybe give me some feedback), the application is available here: https://play.google.com/store/a...10000sentences
I know the design could be better, but I worked on this project alone and I'm no designer. At least I tried hard to make it simple and intuitive to use. There are also other areas where I know it needs some improvements (for example the stats "page"), but it will come with time.
Hope you like it.
PS. Of course, the application is free and open source. The source can be downloaded here: https://github.com/tkrajina/10000sentences
There's already an app / website that does something very similar: https://www.clozemaster.com/
Yours looks very nice though!
Thanks!
Yes, I'm aware about Clozemaster. I saw the announcement on reddit. At the time I already had a proof of concept for my project. It was a web app but I decided to discontinue, because it relied on the idea that people will upload voice recordings and synchronise it with texts. And getting people to do that was too time-consuming (I'm not good at community building).
After a user uploaded a recording, there were a couple of quizzes for each recording/text. One of them was this "guess next word". I still have the website running here: https://130.211.134.78/exercise...16586728765022 (this example is in Armenian). But I'll probably shut it down (or open-source) sooner or later.
Later I realised there is already this cool community (Tatoeba) and that "guess the word" could be a nice small Android app, so I simplified the idea and rewrote it, and this is the result.
I'm always happy to see people reuse Tatoeba's data :)
Nice to know your app is open source as well!
I downloaded 10,000 sentences and it has a nice addictive quality about it. I've done about 60 sentences in Ukrainian, which I'm learning.
I'm not sure what the read sentence button is supposed to do. Does it give you the audio if it's available? That would be helpful but as far as I can see, none of my sentences had that.
Keep up the good work. I'll let you know when I hit my first thousand.
Yes, the "Read sentence" should read that sentence. But it depends whether your Android phone has the TTS package for that language. If not -- there are some external apps which provide for languages missing on most Android phones (you can search the google play store). I use Acapella TTS, but I can't see Ukrainian, there :(
If your phone *has* Ukranian TTS but you still have no voice, maybe it's just that the media volume is too low. When you use the volume buttons by default Android changes the "Notifications" volume. You need to change "Media" volume.
Thanks for the feedback! And, yes, I'd be happy if you let me know when you reach the first 1000 (I'm about to do that today for one of my (two) languages).
I really enjoy this app. I'm about 350 sentences in. I teach English to Ukrainian children and was wondering about producing a kid friendly version that I could infuse with vocabulary from our lessons. I don't know anything about development. Is this the right venue to have this conversation?
One thought I had while I was playing. It would be nice to be able to export useful sentences into a personal phrasebook. I haven't fully explored all the features. Is that something that's already there?
Again, it's a great app when I'm waiting for a bus or an elevator (or for my wife to get ready)
Have a great day.
Hello.
Yes, you can add sententes to your personal favourite list (there is an icon in the shape of a heart above every sentence). Also you can create lists of sentences, private or public (for example, "English sentences which are appropriate for young kids", "Ukrainian beginner's level sentences" and so on.
Hi captcrouton,
I'm not 100% convinced using tatoeba's sentences to teach kids is a very good idea. I translated a number of sentences I wouldn't want my - or any other children - to see.
