I have sooo many things I want to add to this site and my ideas are generated faster than I can implement them! I've been adding more issues to the github repo as I think of them. I think I want to add a page that has all of the different Teochew accents (that I know of). I feel like different sources list different subsets of accents and it's hard for me to keep them all straight in my head.

Anyway, I recorded a phone call with my aunt a while back and I've been listening to parts of it over and over and I'm trying to add more translations to the site. So here are some new ones:

  • fake
  • near
  • to call out for someone
  • to call (on the phone)
  • to enter
  • potato
  • sweet potato
  • America

Whooo more translations!

  • California
  • Southeast Asia
  • to live in
  • to leave
  • to be born
  • He lives in California
  • My friend and I went out for a walk

I added a new category (under Miscellaneous) called Around the World, which is basically just countries and states.

And finally, I have updated the Months and Dates lesson once again, to mention "tone neutralization" and to also add some more examples! Aaaand I think that might be the last update for that lesson in a while.

I added a few more translations:

  • to go on a walk
  • birthday
  • happy birthday

And I've added some alternate translations for a couple of the sentences.

And finally, I keep getting confused about tone changes in months, and I've updated both the Numbers and the Months lesson to hopefully explain things a little better!

I've added a few more translations:

  • top
  • mountain top
  • to go out and have fun

And I also added two sentences:

  • Tonight, I am going to eat at a restaurant
  • I want to talk to you

Many times, you can translate a sentence in multiple ways so I might be restructuring some of the database again to try and support that!

I added the translations for cauliflower and broccoli, which required me to record six different audio clips! I also added the sentence "Did you come home yet?"

Apart from that, I've expanded the "Months" lesson so it now explains how to say a date. I feel like there's still more there that I don't understand, so I'll probably edit it more in the future.
