Background

My name is Ahmed A. Elhossieny. I'm a dedicated student from Egypt, pursuing a bachelor's degree in computer science at Ain Shams University, Faculty of Computer and Information Science, and I expect to graduate in 2026. I am passionate about CSS and general web design, my skill set also includes: OOP, Data Structures, C++, Javascript, Java, React and Python.

Why is it that you are interested in Apertium?

  • Apertium has a decent and interesting community.
  • Apertium seems like a good place to boost my open source/technical skills.

Why should Google and Apertium sponsor it?

  • The current UI feels a bit outdated, a new UI will make good improvement to the user experience.
  • A translation suggestions feature will make it easier to contribute to the platform, which will increase the overall quality.
