Show HE: Europeist - language learning for Europeans (europeist.eu)

The first app I made. Thought I may share it, since it's for us, Europeans to communicate better :)

I really like the design, looks very mature.

I've scrolled the site from France and the descriptions/sentences are not proper French at all. Example : - "Conocer des cultures différentes n’est pas facile si tu ne connais pas la langue." Conocer is spanish, in French we say "Connaître" - "tout ce qui tu apprends, doît rester dans ta tête." Should be "tout ce que TU apprends, doit rester dans ta tête". And even like that the meaning is not really "correct".

Is it based on an automatic translation?

Unfortunately not. Seems that I need to do a better job, ensuring the quality translations. I only hope the translations for the course inside the app are ok, since they were reviewed by another person.

Thanks for letting me know.

In the past I used a translation service from elance for Spanish and what they sent me was terrible. Luckily I was able to spot it myself and had them fix it, but you really have to be careful!

FYI: German translation is also a bit uncommon.

"Bildschirmabbilder" should be "Bilder" or "Screenshots" - it's ok to use some English words in German.

"Die beste Anwendung für das Lernen der Fremdsprachen aus ganzem Europa." should be:

"Die beste Anwendung, um Europas Sprachen zu lernen."
