A person viewing a foreign language web page will see images rather than text, if they wish. Words that have associated images (not conjunctions, prepositions, etc. unless images were or have been developed for them) will be replaced with images. The words could automatically be replaced with images,
or a mouse hovering over the word will present an image. If a person were listening to a Podcast file of a speech, the audio would be converted to text and the text then converted to an image. The words or speech could also be converted to video, sound, odors, tastes [1] or tactile sensations. After reading about teens using emoticons/emojis to talk these days [2] and coming across Lingua.ly [3], I recalled how some language training software uses a picture, sound, or video of each word in the foreign language [4]. You can associate the picture with the word to recall the word, in the same way memory experts recall memorized items by associating them with pictures and scenes [5] . Why not use a text to image, or text to speech to image, sound, smell, video, tactile sensation [6] and video converter to auto hotlink words to images, sounds, video, smell or tactile sensations found on the web or in an on;ine database. I'm sure a tactile, smell and odor search engine will be developed soon. Humm, I wonder what the Windows file extension names will be for these files? It would be fun to speed read [7] using this text to image system.
