Nice job. When I lived in Taiwan, there were small book shops that had quite a few bilingual books (中英雙語) that were a great help for learning.

One thing a lot of people don’t know is that The New York Times publishes many of its articles in both English and Chinese. If you’re an English speaker learning Chinese (or vice vesa) they even have a split reader mode to view both versions side by side.

Example:

Very cool! Just playing with it for the first time. Any chance of adding Turkish?

I'll see if I can find books that are formatted well. Probably LLMs can help me with that

A few years ago I built a weekend project (paralleltext.io) which was fairly popular, even here on HN, but sadly I let the domain expire and was just sitting on my github. I finally took the time to revive it using Claude, with a few improvements for mobile experience. I've been getting occasional questions as to what happened to the project, so here's the revived version, hope you find it useful
