+<h1>The Language Compiler - a mobile translation app for Android</h1>
+
+<p>
+Here you can soon download a <a href="./App11.apk">test version</a>;
+also coming to PlayStore soon.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The Language Compiler is a human language translator based on
+programming language technology. Therefore it is compact in size
+and gives control on quality, indicating confidence with colours:
+<ul>
+ <li><b>Green</b>:
+ semantic translation, should be correct.
+ But not necessarily the only correct one.
+ </li>
+ <li><b>Yellow</b>:
+ syntactic translation, should be grammatically correct.
+ But can be very strange in its interpretation and choice of words.
+ </li>
+ <li><b>Light red</b>:
+ chunk translation, probably incorrect.
+ Builds the translation from small pieces.
+ </li>
+ <li><b>Dark red</b>:
+ word-by-word translation, almost certainly incorrect.
+ Builds the translation word by word.
+ </li>
+</ul>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The Languge Compiler works completely off-line, without
+internet connection, although being on-line may give you better
+speech input and output.
+The app is small (around 23 MB for all languages).
+We do not show ads.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The Language Compiler translates both speech and text.
+It works between any pair of the supported languages.
+However, it works optimally <b>from English</b> and also from Swedish.
+From other languages it can be slow and give more red results.
+But expect frequent updates and improvements!
+</p>
+
+<p>
+When you tap on a translation you get a screen with <b>alternative translations</b>.
+If the input is only a single word, then tapping on each of the alternatives
+gives you <b>grammatical information</b> about the word.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The app also provides an <b>input method</b> which you can use as
+an alternative keyboard which allows you to do translation from
+other applications, for instance while you are entering SMS or e-mail.
+To activate it go to Settings > Language &amp; input.
