This site is a really good idea, but I think it needs some work. The design is not all that appealing and the 3d avatars are soo 2004. Also, when viewing the website in any other language except english, it uses Google Translate. That seems kind of strange for a language learning site.

Agree with the Google-Translate. Entered the site from Germany and was confronted with borken German. I unerstand most of it but for a language site it's definitely not optimal. For sure I wouldn't risk to pay for it.

They should limit themselves to the English version until they can afford some native to translate it into other languages.

One of the devs responded on Techcrunch and said that they just don't have the money right now to translate it. People are suggesting giving users an incentive for translating it for them.
