This looks like a hefty but worthwhile undertaking - I hope you have help!

By the way, I noticed a few mis-translations here & on the Chinese page (which are the two languages that I am familiar with). For example, your translation for lime here is "cal", which is the chemical lime, not the fruit, which would be "limón".

I work in the language learning field, so your project is quite interesting to me. I'd like to know more - How many people are involved? Where did the idea come from? Where are you getting your word lists? Etc.

All the best,

Nancy
