Potential New Resources

Post by Hobgobliner »

Dear all,

I'm developing three things. I'm wondering if these would be useful for other people as well. If so, then perhaps they can be shared.

First, I made my own little flashcard app for words in Indonesian. It collects words from the different lessons on DuoLingo into lessons with the same name. It's written in Python and I run it on my Android phone with the Py3 app. It is very crude, but I find it useful. I often use it to revise a lesson before taking the lesson to the next level. It includes sample sentences, but not all words have them, and I haven't included any lessons from checkpoint 1 in it as I didn't have it then. This is very crude and works for me, but if others are interested then we can look into it.

Second, I'm interested in finding Indonesian songs that contain 1000 new words. By 'new words' I mean words not covered by DuoLingo Indonesian. E.g. in understanding the lyrics of 'Makhluk Tuhan Paling Sexy' by Mulan Jameela I found quite a few words I didn't recognise which aren't in DuoLingo as fas as I know.

Third, I'm going to be suggesting to the Vegan Society of Indonesia that we make a list of words useful for vegans travelling in Indonesia. Clearly one place to make that available (if they agree) is on the FB page. But, I'd like to know if others think this would be sensibly released elsewhere.

If any of these resources would end up being shared more widely, then it would be worth my while thinking of this while developing them. Rather than just having them impossibly rough for others.

Note that even should these suggestions be welcomed, these things will appear over time.

Good initiative. I personally would not use another app. I want to keep it within Anki.

I'm interested in indonesian songs to learn new words and expressions too.

Please tell how I can contact the vegan society - I will send them the suggestion too.

"contact the vegan society"

How does this relate to forum such as duome.eu ?

If you are interested in a vegan society, would it not be best for you to connect directly with them ?
And perhaps to check out resources yourself on search engines such as google ?

Yet - who knows ... perhaps someone here could assist you this.
Though it is not what the focus of our forum is about.

Easy. The OP will suggest that to the vegan society. If they directly tell me the contact, I'll contact them too. When a word list is released, it will help us who are learning Indonesian from English, as well as all travellers to Indonesia. I am not a vegan myself, but I can eat all vegan food and I could have vegan friends or family with me on a future trip to Indonesia.
The OP can simply add 1 line in their overall reply about the contact of that society.

Great call.

And I hopping all that will occur. Or that others of us in this community will engage in a positive way about this.

Thanks for elaborating also on this discussion @striver ,
For engaging and expanding on this.

Thanks for your contributions to this forum here, including about important issues such as issues for the vegan society.

@Hobgobliner I think you could release it here too, if they're interested. Vegan food is good, if you want to eat vegan if not you might still learn something. I like vegan.
