That sounds great! I can't see any chat-line type questions without signing in, but it sounds a very nice idea. I got an enormous amount from wordreference.com

I got an enormous amount from wordreference.com when learning spanish, e.g. you look up "sigue"
https://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=sigue https://www.wordreference.com/es/en/translation.asp?spen=sig...
..and at the bottom of the page are links to friendly discussions about hundreds of questions asked about the word 'sigue' alone or in idioms. Questions are answered within hours. I found it invaluable reading the discussions about usage, more than any single piece of writing could be, and it tells you where the people are from, which variety of english/spanish they speak, whether native speakers etc.
The other most important thing was meeting a teacher on a language exchange site that matches your language levels, and teaching each other. I had one teacher as a beginner and another years later, both became dear friends, endless hours of chatting.
But I never thought of combining the two! Good luck.
- sova 6y agoWow that's an incredible story. Thank you so much for your support. I have been thinking about open-sourcing the code because it could be useful for many other domains.
