For very short phrases the data corpora are too shallow. I have to improve that, and the identifier logic, and... The most important part was discovering that django is amazingly fun & simple. Thanks for the encouragement :)

Right, that makes sense that you need a bigger chunk of data. You could fix that on the user end by just adding a note 'works best with more input'.

Yes, but I also want some kind of enforcement: for short phrases I want to check for being in corpora, if it is clearly in a language I don't want to say "write more," but just identify the language and only in dubious cases put the blame on the user. Ahh, if I had more time and less projects I'd finish this right now :)
