  • German and Dutch Word Order Game

    Despite having common roots, English, German, and Dutch have differing word order rules. This fun game allows you to translate English sentences into Dutch and German to learn the differences and similarities in word order between these languages.

  • Arabic-Turkish Transfer Learning Application

    This web application is based off the Turkish spelling game but adds an additional space for the user to spell the Arabic word. This application also displays different words, since every word in this game is a cognate, i.e., derived from the same root. While not always pronounced identically, these cognates are similar enough to be recognised by Turkish or Arabic speakers. As such, this game will help Turkish speakers learn the Arabic script and Arabic speakers learn the Turkish script. Enjoy!

  • Transfer Learning Application for German-Dutch Morphology

    This web application allows German users and Dutch users to transfer their knowledge of their language’s morphology to the other language. By separating words into morphemes, it allows users to learn spelling and grammar in small steps.

    The application is bi-directional, meaning that users can either practice writing in German or in Dutch. There is also the “easy” mode option, which only asks for affixes instead of word roots.
