Re: [sword-devel] Tamil translation of Bible book names

[Tobias Klein]

Thanks Peter!

Some questions:

1) Is there a reference file / template?
2) Are the sections [Pref Abbrevs] and [Book Abbrevs] optional?

As a developer I can figure out how to work with the locales.d folder 
and its content. But that may not be true for translators - additional 
instruction / guidance would be helpful I think.


Best regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

The locales.d folder in the source contains all current translation. 
It is true, no one has ever written this up for the wiki. Main reason 
is likely it is fairly self explanatory when looking at the working 
examples. But you are right that should be remedied.

What can I give to him as a starting point? I did not find a Wiki

Re: [sword-devel] Open source DuoLingo

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Doing a bit more hunting around, I found this, which doesn't look too bad, but 
introduces a mix of all kinds of technologies for what seems on the surface to 
be a pretty straightforward task.

https://librelingo.app/

Hunting around for what's available as an app for my Android device, I found 
this but I don't believe it's open source. But we can get ideas and see if the 
need is already met.

  Hey guys. I have a seminary who wants to teach ancient biblical

  Do you guys have any recommendations? Barring that, do any of you have
  any interest in either updating our flashcards app into a more capable
  DuoLingo-like app (+audio, different ways to ask questions, multiple
  options for correct answers, possibly more gamification), or simply
  starting something new like this?

  The seminary says they have a team happy to provide the content.

  Thanks for any research on this and for considering offering ideas and
  work,

  Troy

Re: [sword-devel] Open source DuoLingo

[Andrew Smith]

 Our team is familiar with FreeHebrew/FreeGreek. I would say it is a bit
different than that. FreeHebrew is primarily a video-based method. A
Duolingo-styled method is one of inductive learning and drilling. The idea
would be to support in-class learning with short non-biblical sentence
drilling. We are looking to develop something more interactive.

Thank for these suggestions, Robert. I had not heard of them. They look fun. I 
believe they seminary team is looking for an app which uses this style of 
teaching but also coaches the student through their learning with quizzes and 
such.
