Hi PH! This one was caused by an eight-year-old.
I showed my niece a little site full of mechanical keyboard sounds. She'd never seen one. She pressed a key anyway, it went thock, and twenty minutes later she was still pressing and asking questions. Nobody taught her anything. She played first, and the curiosity arrived on its own.
So I built that, for the first thing anyone learns: counting to ten. Tap a number, a voice says it. Ten numbers and a language is yours, plus one true story about it as a reward.
The nerdy part: every word was checked against two independent sources (Unicode CLDR + Omniglot, Wiktionary as referee). One language is missing on purpose - Chichewa - because I couldn't verify it twice, and wrong felt worse than missing.
The honest part: the voices are AI, and the page says so. If it says your language wrong, tell me and I'll fix it or find a real person who says it right.
Somewhere right now someone is teaching a kid to count on their fingers in a language I'll never hear. This is my small museum for that.
