I really want to make an iPhone app that helps people create sentences in Chinese.
Here’s the minimum viable product:

- 1. Search for a word or phrase like you would in any Chinese dictionary app.
- 2. Save it.
- 3. Search for another word or phrase.
- 4. Save it….
- 5. Once you have all the words you want to use in a list, click Make A Sentence.
- 6. New page. Empty text field at the top. All your words or phrases are below. Drag and drop them into the correct order.
- 7. You can now copy and paste your new sentence into a text message or email. Or, just say it.

yeah, goog is doing pretty well with their translation tools. but, i still can’t just type in an english sentence and get it back in perfect chinese. it’s good at words and phrases and giving me a general understanding of whatever i paste in.
there are a couple basic sentence structures in chinese. if i could have those shown to me as a template, then i could drag some words or phrases in place.

For those app developers that don’t know Objective-C and Cocoa Touch and don’t want to outsource development, check out localbeacon (an iphone app builder) at http://www.bigforge.com. Great for those who want to build just one app or developers interested in white label. Full integration of Twitter and Facebook.
