The flashcard function idea is not essential, given the availability of
superior free, open-source, multi-platform flashcard programs like Anki.

There are Swadesh lists for many languages, which should be supplemented by
more contemporary words and phrases.

It seems interesting and possibly grant-worthy.  But finding the talent to
persevere is non-trivial.
