The new collaborative service will help people learn foreign languages using the method invented by German archeologist Heinrich Schliemann

MOSCOW, Russia – August 19, 2009 – Larnite Ltd today announces the launch of version 1.1 of CorrectMyText.com, a new collaborative service for language learners with the elements of social networking. Once registered, the user can submit a text and get it corrected for free by someone who speaks the desired language fluently. Besides, members can request a recorded version of the corrected text to practice pronunciation.

CorrectMyText.com is the effort of Dmitry Lopatin, a young scientist and entrepreneur from Russia. As a child, he read a book about the famous 19th century German archeologist Heinrich Schliemann who is famous for finding the gold of Troy and inventing his own method of learning foreign languages. To master a new language, Schliemann would read a book written in a foreign language, comparing the text sentence by sentence with the translation in his mother tongue. Then he would write texts in a foreign language and pay to foreigners to get them corrected, sometimes spending all his money. Within two years, Schliemann taught himself 15 languages, including English, French, Spanish, Dutch, Italian and Portuguese. Inspired by the personality of the scientist and his learning method, Dmitry Lopatin created CorrectMyText.com in April 2009.

To get started, the user needs to register an account on CorrectMyText, which is quick and free. Facebook users can use the site without any registration. The “Facebook Connect” button on top of the homepage enables the user to connect CorrectMyText.com with Facebook in a click. After the registration, the user can submit any kind of text: an essay, resume, letter, or a blog-post and a native speaker or someone who speaks the desired language fluently will proofread the text for grammar and style mistakes. Correcting mistakes for native speakers is easy, so many of them are happy to help with proofreading. Before submitting the text, the user can specify the level of language competence required from the proofreader, the number of checks to be made and request a recorded version of the corrected text. At any time, members can contact each other and discuss language-specific topics using the built-in mailing system. Also, users can comment on texts or corrections, discuss the content, or grammar rules.

Currently, the CorrectMyText community consists of over 1,500 registered members learning one of the ten most commonly used languages, including English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. The site also supports texts in non-Latin languages, which makes it attractive to learners who want to study Chinese, Japanese, Korean, or Russian and want to find a language partner to get advice and assistance in proofreading. For the convenience of the users, the interface is localized to 10 above mentioned languages. In the nearest future, the author plans to localize the site up to 100 languages, including Latin and Esperanto.

CorrectMyText.com is a good complimentary service for people who are serious about learning a foreign language and want to get assistance from people around the world. Visit www.correctmytext.com.

Larnite Ltd is a privately-held company founded in 2007 and located in Moscow, Russia. The company owns B2B portals and services designed for the users in Russia.

Schliemann would read a book written in a foreign language, comparing
the text sentence by sentence with the translation in his mother
tongue. Then he would write texts in a foreign language and pay to
foreigners to get them corrected, sometimes spending all his money.
Within two years, Schliemann taught himself 15 languages, including

CorrectMyText.com
offers many unique benefits.
<UL>
	<LI>There
	are thousands of native speakers who can
	correct the text at no cost and will do it much better than a
	teacher or private tutor who cannot speak the language as perfectly
	as the native speaker.
	<LI>The
	service can help bloggers or webmasters to
	brush up the content of a blog or website if the personal language
	competence leaves much to be desired.
	<LI>The
	user can find many new friends from around the world and
	share valuable cultural knowledge, which is impossible when one
	attends language courses, or has lessons with a private tutor.
	<LI>The
	user can submit a text on any topic: love, relationships,
	philosophy, world issues, or a text that contains slang, which one
	would find embarrassing to show to the teacher or private tutor.
