Project Description:
The project will be a mix of interactive storytelling and a tool. It is a website about learning English loanwords in Shanghainese. The minimum goal is to let the users learn six words after using the website.
The project will start with an introduction of the content, loanwords in Shanghainese, and the purpose. It will then follow with an interactive story about a kid feeling as if he were the child of a boss after going to a bakery by taxi to buy biscuits and nougats. The story will contain six loanwords in Shanghainese. Hopefully, the audience will learn from them. The interaction will be the taxi driving, the snacks eaten, and the camera capture of the audience’s figure as if he were the character in the story.
If the users are eager learners, there will be an appendix of many loanwords in Shanghainese for them to learn more. Sound of the pronunciations and interaction to play the sound will be included.
