Congrats on the launch - these low friction ways to learn (like Fluent - https://www.producthunt.com/post...) are great

Cleverrrrr! and lots of languages!

@ceo_rackcity Yes! We hope to market it strongly to people that haven't been able to have a resource like this
Yuriy Dybskiy
Congrats on the launch! Curious, how do you test translations on such scale and with so many languages?
Jörg Doku
@html5cat That's an excellent question. We're currently evaluating translation quality using the BLEU benchmark, across a wide variety of open source parallel corpus datasets.

Very cool!

@giacaglia Glad you liked it :D

I've found that texting my family and relatives in Russian actually improved my Russian, so it's cool to see that concept implemented more broadly! Especially given the low barrier to entry of texting, particularly for people with social anxiety. The auto-translating to different languages feature sounds like it would help when you don't have a partner to practice with or are too anxious to try! Reminds me of the method of changing your device and app settings to a different language to practice reading. Patiently awaiting the Android app!

@agilgur5 That's our hope! and the Android version is coming, just you wait! :D

Why do you require a phone number? Looks interesting but I won’t be signing up.

I'm super excited to try this. I tried to learn French from Youtube and found it was useless when I travelled and couldn't converse in French. There's something different about learning a language and conversing in it. And I'm excited to see if this app solves it.
Jörg Doku
@thiscodeworks Great to hear you love Nama!!!
