👋 Hello, I'm Dario, a passionate machine learning engineer on a mission to transform Japanese language learning. 🇯🇵✨
Are you tired of struggling with Japanese and the endless amount of Kanji? I was too. I like learning languages, but tackling Japanese was on a whole different level, frustrating me a lot. That's why I created DaKanji – your ultimate companion for mastering Japanese effortlessly.
DaKanji started as a simple idea to simplify Kanji lookup, but through hard work and lots of positive feedback, it evolved into something way bigger. Now, it offers:
- A multi-language offline dictionary: Look up words and kanjis anytime, anywhere.
- Pitch accent data and audio pronunciations: Master proper pronunciation and intonation.
- Text analysis tools: Break down complex sentences and understand grammar with ease.
- Anki integration: Create personalized flashcards for spaced repetition and long-term memory.
...and so much more, fully offline!
But this is just the beginning. With your help, I plan to take DaKanji to a level that will make learning Japanese fun.
- Gamified Learning: Imagine mastering Japanese while enjoying your favorite video games! DaKanji's future plans include subtitle extraction for on-the-fly translation and a one-tap-dictionary, making learning a truly fun and immersive experience.
- Immersive Learning: Similarly, DaKanji could enable you to watch your favorite videos, and read e-books with the same translation ability and one-tap-dictionary
- Community content: An account system could enable users to share their word lists with others, create mnemonics for Kanjis, discuss grammar points and so much more!
- Kanji trainer: The next step from the current kanji recognizer is a kanji trainer. Imagine DaKanji teaching you not only kanji readings and meanings but also how to write them, even letting you use a stylus to practice calligraphy
Fully integrated learning: With a powerful spaced-repetition based flashcard system, you can learn in no time. But if DaKanji knows what you know it can adapt to you. Imagine, DaKanji only showing you furigana for words that you do not know yet! - On-device Japanese teacher: Have real-time conversations, get instant corrections, and receive personalized explanations – all powered by cutting-edge Large Language Models (LLMs) that run locally on your device, also fully offline!
By sponsoring me, you'll empower me to dedicate more time to projects like DaKanji, making language learning accessible to all.
Together, let's turn dreams into reality and make learning Japanese fun and easy. Ready to join the journey? Click the donate button and change how we can learn Japanese!
