## What it is
Polyglot is a cross-platform desktop (and web) application for practicing spoken language with AI conversation partners, built on ChatGPT for dialogue and Azure TTS/speech services for voice. It supports dozens of languages, custom AI personas and scenarios, speech recognition with hotkeys, word highlighting during playback, and translation.

## Use cases
- practice speaking a foreign language with an AI tutor
- have voice conversations with ChatGPT in different languages
- improve pronunciation with text-to-speech and word highlighting
- create custom AI characters and conversation scenarios for language practice
- learn English or other languages through spoken dialogue
- translate text while practicing a new language

## When to choose
- you want an interactive speaking-practice app rather than passive lessons
- you have your own OpenAI and Azure API keys and want a free self-configured experience
- you need a desktop app on macOS, Windows, or Linux (or a web version)
- you want customizable AI personas, scenarios, and multiple languages

## When to avoid
- you need fully offline language practice without cloud AI services
- you require strong mobile support - the web version is not well adapted for phones
- you want a structured curriculum with lessons and grammar exercises rather than free-form conversation
- you cannot obtain OpenAI or Azure API keys and do not want a paid membership
