Txog Untranslate Kev Kawm Lus Thiab Kev Siv Ntawv

Untranslate yog ib qho application kawm lus uas qhia txog tej yam tseem ceeb ntawm ib hom lus los ntawm kev kawm raws li ntsiab lus (context-based learning). Untranslate muab ib lo lus lossis kab lus los ntawm ib daim ntawv teev npe uas twb xaiv tseg lawm, ces piav qhia txog lo lus ntawd raws li plaub qhov ntsiab: keeb kwm (historical), kab lis kev cai (cultural), sab zej zog (social), thiab kev sib tham niaj hnub (colloquial). Txhua lo lus muaj kev txhawb nqa los ntawm keeb kwm ntawm lo lus (etymology), cov phau ntawv, yeeb yaj kiab thiab nkauj uas muaj feem cuam tshuam, cov xov xwm thiab yeeb yaj kiab luv luv, thiab kev qhia txog kev siv rau hauv kev sib tham. Application no siv tau rau hauv cov khoos phis tawj ntes tes, tablets, thiab laptops, thiab cov screens raug tsim raws li tej qauv accessibility uas twb teem tseg lawm.

Yam Tshwj Xeeb: Untranslate explores the barrier between languages through the subjective experiences of people. It is an application that teaches you the nuances of a language through context-based learning. Deviating from the traditional academic sources, it introduces you specific cultural references and content that can only be learnt by living in the corresponding place or through conversations with native speakers.
Qhov Loj & Ntim: Untranslate is meant to be an application that can be accessed on mobile devices as well as tablets and laptops. The screens and graphics are not only adaptable but are in line with the accessibility standards for all kinds of people.
Cov Ntsiab Lus: Application, Language, Education, Culture, Linguistics, Social, Context, Historical, Community
Thev Naus Laus Zis Tsim Khoom: After rigorous user testing, and evaluating existing language applications, these were some challenges.

Limited Functionality, content covered was very limited.
Lack of Context, information may not be contextually acceptable.
Impersonal, people do not connect with language.

Moving forward, here are the insights gained from the pain points.

Experience, the content should be put into real life context.
Context, more experiential approach to language learning.
Awareness, exposure to varied kinds of media.
Kev Sib Tw Tsim Qauv: The primary challenge in this project stemmed from the notion that language by itself can be an ineffective tool in seamlessly communicating across borders and backgrounds. During building the content and flow of the app, it was very important to get information from credible, first hand sources and be mindful of any social and culturally relevant information. There were several rounds of fact checking, so as to produce the most accurate and unbiased content.
Kev Tshawb Fawb: The research behind Untranslate involved first-hand interviews with multiple native speakers of multiple languages. The purpose of the interviews was to obtain experiential information about their perception of language, their social and political associations with it, in addition to any anecdotes they may have related to their linguistic background. Images and quotes were also requested from the interviewees so as to make the content of the application more relatable and welcoming.
Kev Txhawb Siab: Language is not just a tool, but a reflection of its surrounding culture, people, media, and socio-politics. Therefore, the true essence of a language can never truly be translated into another. Certain words, phrases, and expressions can only be fully understood by interacting with the culture and the people it has emerged and grown from. The large number of people who grow up outside their state or country often lose the privilege of being immersed in their native languages and cultures.
Lub Sij Hawm Ua Hauj Lwm: This project started in New York City in August 2019 and finished in May 2021. Since then, it has won a Graphic Design USA Award, a Best Award (hosted by DINZ), an ADGA Award and a Communication Arts Interaction Design Award.
Txheej Txheem Ua Hauj Lwm: Untranslate provides the user with a single word or phrase from a curated list of contextually rich words. Upon selecting a word it presents you with 4 different contexts, historical, cultural, social and colloquial.

As a part of the four contexts, Untranslate presents the user with the etymology of the word; a list of curated culturally relevant content such as book, movies and songs; access to news articles and clips; and knowledge on how to use the word in a conversational setting.
