Etymology of Words

Swift Playgroundbook made by Thiago Nitschke Simões for WWDC21 Swift Student Challenge.

Etymology of Words Cover

Introduction

This playground book consists of a simple browsing book, made more interactive, letting the user interact with it to discover which words may or may not have a common origin. It introduces the topic of a word's etymology in a ludic way. I used SwiftUI and NaturalLanguage frameworks to develop this project.

Download

To experience this project, download the ".playgroundbook" file in this repository, and open it using Swift Playgrounds 3.4 or above for macOS (you can also use Playgrounds for iPad).
