Create an educational app to teach characters from your mother tongue

Create an educational app with Pocket Code to teach the characters and some words from your mother tongue (only when the language is really your first language, either on your mother's or your father's side), aimed either at young children learning to read, or at foreigners learning your language and writing system.

How to do it: 1- Every character should have at least a written example word in your mother tongue, like “A: apple”. Note that for languages with more than 100 characters, e.g., Chinese or Japanese, not all characters have to be included, but at least the 50 most important ones should be covered. 2- The example words should be simple and easy, so try to pick an important, useful word that I need at the beginning of learning your language. 3- A better way of teaching younger kids might be to have photos related to the example word. One photo is enough. 4- When the letter or the photo is tapped, the pronunciation of it should be heard. Try to record it clearly.

Optionally, also include a quiz for the letters, e.g., when hearing the pronunciation, select the corresponding character.
