One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my projects is to enable the indiginous peoples in Taiwan to use computers in their native languages. When shown to some of them during a computer class, it was amazing to see, that thanks to the spell checker I provided, they were actually reviewing and improving their own pronunciation. So we heard comments and discussions going on on how to correctly pronounce certain words, like "Ah, itʼs actually pronounced that way and not like this, like I always thought!" :) It is nice to see, that my tools not only help them to communicate with their computers in their native languages, but that it also helps them to improve their own speaking, which is important when they teach their languages to their kids.
