Description
Have you ever wondered what it's like to translate the work of a famous French poet? Do you burn to get your creative teeth into the intricacies of a Lithuanian rhyming couplet? Or are you just curious about how translation actually works?
Translatory is your way in, and you don’t need to know ANY languages to get the most out of it.
Expect regular updates with new poems to test your translation skills and introduce you to new languages, cultures and ideas.

What’s New
Version 1.4
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Small tweaks: added a website link for Josep Lluís Aguiló’s book ‘Lunarium’, and an intro message for those who open the app for the first time and aren’t quite sure what to do next.
