- Eggon speakers, families, and language-learning app makers
- Worth noticing
- A word enters the collection only after at least two listeners agree; a linguist’s vote counts twice.
Field notes
The example entry for àkyèn links a spelling to a cited study, a Wana-dialect recording, speaker review, and a Tonal Kids numbers lesson; the site says earlier spellings remain on record if corrected. For app makers, the page describes packs of checked words with pictures and recordings, version-aware updates, and revocable per-app keys. These are presented as the project’s workflow and API offering, rather than independently verified here.
