What's next
Where Knyaw is going
Knyaw is a growing project, made out in the open with Karen people. Here is what is done, what comes next, and the big thing up ahead.
Live
Here now
- Reading lessons, with English-letter sounds first
- More than 200 checked words across 11 topics
- All the letters, being checked with a Karen speaker
- A word list you can search, with a page for every word
- Hand-drawn pictures for most words, to help you remember
- Daily review that helps words stick
- Help from Karen people. Speakers check the words.
Next
Working on next
- More checked words, with help from Karen people
- Short bits and sentences, not just one word at a time
- Pictures for the rest of the words too
- More menu languages, to reach more people
Later
The big one, later
- Sound, recorded with Karen speakers. This is what finally lets Knyaw teach you how to say words and tones in an honest way. It needs recordings and money, so it comes when we have both.
There are no set dates. Knyaw moves as fast as time, money, and help from Karen speakers let it. Want it to go faster?
