Songs, languages, and a dog who fetches
shanigo is a set of language-learning tools built around song lyrics, named for Shani, a brindle-coated Jindo. The tools are still in development. The first public release is the corpus they are tested on.
The name reads two ways: Shani goes, to fetch, and Shani 語 (go), the Japanese for “language”.
