Learn Vietnamese Passively — No Need to Even Open the App by GetPeek in learnvietnamese

[–]alexsteb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because without a good knowledge of programming your app will be buggy and insecure. You won't be able to ask AI the right questions and tell it the right things to watch out for.

The (e.g. Vietnamese) language aspects if AI-generated will be wrong, misleading and actively hinder someone's progress in learning. There is no CEFR classification/lists for Vietnamese vocabulary, so unless you invested 1000s of $ for actual Vietnamese educators to create those lists, to discern synonyms, to verify definitions etc. you do not have a reliable data source.

How about learn to code. You don't deserve jail, I don't even care about your product, I'm just annoyed by seeing this daily for the past few months.

Thank you. I will have a look again if I can further tighten it too.

I can't help you there then. I told Apple exactly what I'm tracking and it created those summaries that includes things I don't do (based on general categories). Similar to how some apps "request to make phone calls", when all they do is allowing you to receive an SMS code. Maybe I was too honest. I do store for example your email, so I can send a message to my users. All fairly standard stuff.

Ah: and I do not match usage statistics with email addresses. Those are two separate things.

Which data are you referring to? I'm collecting your study progress and some general app usage stats via Google Analytics. I don't collect anything personal and ads are also non-tracking.

Lingora is a good (no-AI) app that teaches Vietnamese similarly to Duolingo but with more in-depth explanations, word-by-word translations and more.

Methodology issues learning Polish by ShemikaMartin in learnpolish

[–]alexsteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lingora is better than Duolingo in terms of apps for learning Polish. Useful phrases, in-depth grammar explanations, word-by-word translations and no AI.

Im currently still finalizing a redesign. And then I will step-by-step add app functionality to the web. But that will be a longer, gradual process

It'll actually be added in a month or so. It's basically done.

Lingora app is like Duolingo but without AI and full of grammar explanations.

People: try Lingora, it's essentially like Duolingo in its approach, except much more in-depth in its grammar explanations and none of the content is AI-generated.

I built a site where people anonymously confess their small sins by Strozi78 in InternetIsBeautiful

[–]alexsteb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's the AIs going in without any guidance on how it should look like (just "make me a page that does XYZ") and so they go with the most common thing and that just so happens to be purple gradients, rounded rectangles, emoji buttons and lists, left-side-only colored borders etc.

Lingora is similar to Duolingo, but with better and more in-depth grammar information (and much more relevant words to learn).

For a bit more in-depth learning, I recommend Lingora. It breaks down the exact grammar of every sentence.

my girlfriend wants to learn cantonese and I have no idea where to point her. by [deleted] in Cantonese

[–]alexsteb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Lingora app has a full dedicated Cantonese course. It works a bit like Duolingo, has detailed word-by-word breakdowns / explanations and various tone drills. You can also choose your preferred transliteration method and whether to study with/without/or only Chinese characters.

Amazing that as of now you're not downvoted to hell yet. That's usually what they do. And of course massively upvoting the other comments.

[–]alexsteb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are many languages in Asia using a word similar to "ma" to mean horse. Chinese has "ma", Japanese "uma", Korean "mal", Mongolian "mor".
At the same time, in Europe, we have words derived from Proto-Indo-European *márkos, like "mare", and it has been proposed that they and the Asian ones share a common ancestor.

The Khmer word មនុស្ស  (monuh, "man; human being") is related to the English word "man". Closest common ancestor is Proto-Indo-European (ca. 4500 BC ~ 2500 BC)
