@therealomardiab Hey Omar. We had a bug the day you tried downloading it. Should be fixed :)

It reminds me LinguaLeo, which is popular in Russia and which has similar extension for browser. I tried to use Flipword and then uninstalled it because there are too little languages to choose from. I am learning french now, and there were only spanish and chineese.

@cherrywins Hey Ekaterina, We actually currently have 8 languages, the drop-down is a scroll-list. LinguaLeo is a direct translator, ours has an education system built in.

It's good for the web-surfing to be curated for Flipword in sessions. Perhaps you should couple your service with something like www.sessionbuddy.com - With language it's important for each web-surfing adventure with language-learning attached to be comprehensive to some degree for, without a comprehensive approach I'm just not going to retain at the same level, for example: If a Flipword web-surfing session is "Reading News" -- then my Flipword session in-browser should encourage me via UI-UX to completely read an entire sentence of an article to start then, slowly begin to move to more of the article and complete at least 1 paragraph (an entire idea) to finish. If instead I'm just using Flipword to curate language learning within my subjective channels during each web-surfing session then, my learning overall can't be comprehensive. To curate different sessions for users would allow them to explore topics on the web like "Science", "Religion", "Entertainment", and more allowing a user to become well-rounded and better versed as a result of Flipword. ( These could be medals you achieve because you've learned "Scientific" Korean words ) If the user only uses Flipword during a Facebook session they may not gain enough insight into the langauge to really grow their skills to the potential that Flipword can offer. The gamified lessons & quizzes should then only help supplement the organic content that has been read within browsing sessions.. and browsing sessions should be well-rounded surfing allowing a user to learn extensively within a specific category for example: I start looking up Cars, so Flipword would encourage me to read one paragraph of an article about cars during my session and, perhaps next time encourage me to describe a car in multiple situations as a quiz or in a gamified space in-browser. I'm planning to explore Korean with Flipword
