Can't I just use the regular version of ChatGPT instead of a custom Talkalotta GPT to learn a language?Of course you could! You could also teach yourself how to tread water and swim without a swimming coach or how to fix a flat tire and replace your brakes without a mechanic. Nowadays, you don't strictly need anyone else to teach yourself anything, provided you have significant time and patience to metaphorically cross a river by touching each stone—or you could pay the toll and use the bridge to drive your straight car across the river. Talkalotta streamlines your learning experience so that you can learn a language as fast as humanly possible with the help of AI to save you time, money, and grey hair.

What makes Talkalotta unique for language learning?You have a problem (you want to learn a language). ChatGPT has the technology (Generative AI with text and voice). Talkalotta streamlines your user experience so that you can solve your problem and learn a language as fast as humanly possible with the help of AI to save you time, money, and grey hair. With Talkalotta's custom GPTs, your language learning consists of exactly: 1) what you want to know (not only what a formal teacher thinks you should know); 2) when you want to know it (whenever is convenient for you not someone else); 3) where you want to learn it (outside of a classroom, in a classroom, at work, away from work, on vacation, killing time, wherever); and 4) how you want to learn it (faster, slower, more balanced, talking about motorcycles, practicing prepositions, test prep, you name it).

Universal Dependencies
Universal Dependencies is a project that seeks to develop cross-linguistically consistent treebank annotation for many languages, with the goal of facilitating multilingual parser development, cross-lingual learning, and parsing research from a language typology perspective. The annotation scheme is based on (universal) Stanford dependencies (de Marneffe et al., 2006, 2008, 2014), Google universal part-of-speech tags (Petrov et al., 2012), and the Interset interlingua for morphosyntactic tagsets (Zeman, 2008).

UniMorph
The Universal Morphology (UniMorph) project is a collaborative effort to improve how NLP handles complex morphology in the world’s languages. The goal of UniMorph is to annotate morphological data in a universal schema that allows an inflected word from any language to be defined by its lexical meaning, typically carried by the lemma, and by a rendering of its inflectional form in terms of a bundle of morphological features from our schema. The specification of the schema is described [here].
