May 18, 20169 yr What a brilliant idea ! Although I must admit my first thought was 'scam'. (cynical.....moi? ) If it works like they suggest in the video they will make $Billions. The 'learn a foreign language' industry will be bankrupt & translators will all be unemployed. However the cynical side of me wonders how it would cope with the use of Slang for instance? Also regional variations, there is a lot of differences between UK English & American English. Or even the inflections used in North UK & South UK or even between regions of Spain. This story did remind me of a song. Ian Dury. 'There aint' half been some clever bastards.'
