SPEAK- A MY LANGUAGE

Imagine you’re in  high school  and the new super cute Brazilian student arrives in your class and they barely speak English. With GWIJ on your phone you can start communicating with them immediately. You set your primary  language to English (you’re in the USA) and then make your  secondary  language Portuguese. Start babbling, I mean, texting away, and you’ll   be easily understood  ( remember, don’t come on too strong, or they’ll think you’re a weirdo).

GWIJ is a translating and texting App that FUSE helped design.  We did the name, the identity and  key frame design, even the double bubble text holder!  This app is just like your native IOS  messaging app, but allows you to set your primary language and  a secondary language that instantly translates your primary language. You can then send either your primary or secondary language  to whomever you’re texting with. The best part is you can see both your primary and secondary languages in the double bubble text  box.

With GWIJ,  you can see the Portuguese in real time as  you type your  words of love, I mean, your words of your  native  language.  Then, if you want to hear what the pronunciation is, you can hit the speaker icon in the double bubble and the GWIJ Translator Robot (she looks like Nicole Kidman) will speak what you’ve written out loud. This means you can practice saying clever things like,  “Wow,  I ‘d like  to  eat  this bad cafeteria pizza off your beautiful neck”.  OK, don’t say that, you barely know this person.  Ask them something like, “do you have a pet Tapir back home in Brazil?” And, in Portuguese: “Voce tern uma anta de estinacaao no Brasil?”
