Love it! Tom and Yinghua, did you guys use this to learn a new language yourselves? Or was the tech derived from your experience learning a new language? I'd be disappointed if you guys tell me you speak English only. :)
@kendrickesq Hey Kendrick, thank you! Yeah, both of us speak Chinese, in addition to English. Thomas extended into advanced Chinese and is relearning his high school Spanish using FlipWord. I'm refreshing my undergrad Japanese. I also taught English and Chinese in both China and America. We are designing the product from both the learner and teacher's views, to make it really effective.
Hi Yinghua and Thomas, lovely idea! I was inspired and made a video about my onboarding experience and I think it can help you but I'm having trouble uploading it. (It's too long; 15min!) Can I share it with you through Skype/Hangout or so? Would love to connect! :)
@pyer Hey Pier, thank you so much for reaching out and sending me the helpful video on FB :) We would love to connect! I'll message you on FB to schedule a time.
This is super cool. Sounds really nice way to practice new language gradually.... But, what about sensitive data ? Are you going to be reading and storing all web pages and content that I browse ?
The idea is totally amazing in its simplicity. Having about 15-year background of teaching languages behind me, I deeply believe that this way will work effectively for many modern students integrating studying naturally into the process of surfing the net. I'm already keen to try it in work. Good luck to all your team!
@myalanska Thanks for the support! We deeply believe in it as well, using it ourselves. We are constantly tweaking the algorithm and adding new stuff. Please let us know all your feedback!
Safari would be cool but this extension alone might be able to make me convert to Chrome. I had a similar idea couple of months ago but it wasn't this advanced.
Recommended for literally every person on Earth
@noxowe Glad to have you on the Chrome train! We want to master the experience on one platform, and then quickly replicate everywhere. We very much hope to benefit every individual, and bridge otherwise disconnected communities
@nivo0o0 Thanks for the support! We think it's pretty cool too :)
Report
Before signing up I wanted to see what languages are available but I'm having trouble finding any information, anyone know languages are currently supported?
@jbrack Hey Jesse, we currently support Spanish, German, French, Italian, Chinese (Simplified, Traditional, Cantonese), Japanese, Korean, and (for funsies) British English. Thanks for bearing with us :)
@reeset Since I'm looking for Danish, it would be great if you add a field where you ask which languages you want on the website and a email field so when you add a language, those who select it receives a notification by email :)
