I tried Japanese - without some form of hints for the kanji (whether regular furigana, or my preferred "hover-only" tips) I suspect it's probably going to be of limited usefulness for most learners. I like the idea though! Have you considered introducing TTS?

Also, after being asked "how are you", I said "Well and yourself", the response was "Me? I like soccer!", which is...well...an unusual response to say the least.

Yeah... It's not the brightest. Sometimes when you ask it how it is, it replies "I am functioning within my normal parameters". It seems to like to show off it's language skills?
The "normal parameters" answer was great, and I'm not even a Trekkie.
I just updated the AI to be a lot smarter - and it's improved now. You can try it out.
