Building Educational Software for Mandarin Chinese and Interlingua IALA
Language-learning software is most useful when it makes structure visible. I’m Ian Blas, a developer based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and I build educational tools around Mandarin Chinese, Interlingua IALA, etymology, morphology, writing systems, and open-source language learning.
Two projects, one educational approach
My work currently takes two complementary forms.
Chety is an educational app for Mandarin Chinese. It approaches characters and words through their structure, etymology, morphology, historical development, and use in context.
