Background

"Bhasha" means Language in Sanskrit.

This repository contains source code, presentation decks and images related Bhasha learning application.

For learning any language, we may need to memorize words to improve our vocabulary. Bhasha attempts to help you address this problem.

Source Language is a language that user wants to learn. And Destination Language(s) are languages, which a user employs to understand Source Language.

In our examples, Source Language is German and Destination Languages are English or any Indian Language. One can use any google supported language family.

Recent studies (Figure 1) show that german has been trending language now for learning amongst foreigners. Having limited resources for learning, Bhasha aims to help these students.
