The purpose of this project was to build a language translator for Amharic-English language pair, which in the beginning of the project was not supported by any of the known translation systems. The goal of this project was to make a language translator application for Amharic English language pair using swift language for iOS platform.
The project has two components. The first one is the language translator application described above and the second component is an integrated Amharic custom keyboard which makes the user able to type Amharic letters which are not supported by iOS 9 system keyboard. The Amharic language has more than 250 letters and numbers and they are represented using extended keys. The project was implemented using the Swift language.
At the end of the project an iOS application to translate English to Amharic and vice versa was made. The translator applications uses the translation system which was built on the Microsoft Translator Hub and accessed using Microsoft Translator API. The application can be used to translate texts from Amharic to English or vice versa.
