<h1>The Language Compiler - a mobile translation app for Android</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Here you can soon download a <a href="./App11.apk">test version</a>;
|
|
also coming to PlayStore soon.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Language Compiler is a human language translator based on
|
|
programming language technology. Therefore it is compact in size
|
|
and gives control on quality, indicating confidence with colours:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><b>Green</b>:
|
|
semantic translation, should be correct.
|
|
But not necessarily the only correct one.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><b>Yellow</b>:
|
|
syntactic translation, should be grammatically correct.
|
|
But can be very strange in its interpretation and choice of words.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><b>Light red</b>:
|
|
chunk translation, probably incorrect.
|
|
Builds the translation from small pieces.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li><b>Dark red</b>:
|
|
word-by-word translation, almost certainly incorrect.
|
|
Builds the translation word by word.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Languge Compiler works completely off-line, without
|
|
internet connection, although being on-line may give you better
|
|
speech input and output.
|
|
The app is small (around 23 MB for all languages).
|
|
We do not show ads.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Language Compiler translates both speech and text.
|
|
It works between any pair of the supported languages.
|
|
However, it works optimally <b>from English</b> and also from Swedish.
|
|
From other languages it can be slow and give more red results.
|
|
But expect frequent updates and improvements!
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
When you tap on a translation you get a screen with <b>alternative translations</b>.
|
|
If the input is only a single word, then tapping on each of the alternatives
|
|
gives you <b>grammatical information</b> about the word.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The app also provides an <b>input method</b> which you can use as
|
|
an alternative keyboard which allows you to do translation from
|
|
other applications, for instance while you are entering SMS or e-mail.
|
|
To activate it go to Settings > Language & input.
