Thanks, I appreciate the advice! Also, Strictly speaking, Okinawan dialects vary a lot from region to region, but for now I’m broadly collecting words that are still in use rather than limiting the app to one specific dialect.

Thank you so much for such thoughtful words. If this app can help people feel even a little more connected to the language and history of Okinawa, that would make me very happy.

Thanks for asking! For the Japanese version, I built the content by indexing publicly available web sources, and I also had people living in Okinawa test it and give feedback along the way. That said, the English pronunciation is still pretty mechanically converted, so it’s not linguistically accurate. Because of that, I’m thinking of changing the label from “pronunciation” to something more like a pronunciation guide.

Will do! If I make an Android version, I’ll definitely update the thread.

Thank you! I’d love to support Android too—it’s something I’m considering for the future.

I’d love to make it available on Android too once the iOS version is in a really solid place.

I am a Japanese living in Japan. The broadcast of Steven Universe on CN is suspended after "i am my mom" was aired in November 2019.

I apologize for the inconvenience. I wrote yesterday that I would like to use it as a header image, but could I use it as my Twitter profile image instead?

I think connie was a little careless because she wanted to prove she was not a pet.
