-## Setting up
-

-python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
-pip install -e "packages/foreignthon[dev]"
-pip install -e packages/langs/es
-```
-
-## Running tests
-
-```bash
-pytest packages/foreignthon/tests/ -v
-```
-
-## Adding a new language pack
-
-1. Copy `packages/langs/es/` to `packages/langs/<code>/`
-2. Rename `foreignthon_es` → `foreignthon_<code>` throughout
-3. Fill in `<code>.json` following the same schema as `es.json`
-4. Validate it: `fpy pack packages/langs/<code>/src/foreignthon_<code>/<code>.json`
-5. Add tests if the language has tricky characters or edge cases
-6. Open a PR or publish independently as `foreignthon-<code>` on PyPI
-
-## Language pack schema
-
-Every pack must have these top-level keys:
-`meta`, `keywords`, `builtins`, `exceptions`, `error_messages`, `stdlib`
-
-See `packages/langs/es/src/foreignthon_es/es.json` as the reference.
-
-## Code style
-
-```bash
-ruff check packages/foreignthon/src

-## Language Packs
-
-A language pack is a JSON file + a tiny Python wrapper published as `foreignthon-xx` on PyPI.
-See `packages/langs/es/` for the reference implementation.
-
-The JSON covers:
-- **keywords** — `si → if`, `para → for`, `definir → def` …
-- **builtins** — `imprimir → print`, `rango → range` …
-- **exceptions** — `ErrorDeValor → ValueError` …
-- **error_messages** — bilingual error output
-- **stdlib** — `matematicas → math` …
-
-Validate your pack before publishing:
-
-```bash
-fpy pack mylang.json
-```
-
-## Development
-
-```bash
-git clone <your-repo>
-cd foreignthon
-python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
-pip install -e "packages/foreignthon[dev]"
-pip install -e packages/langs/es
-pytest packages/foreignthon/tests/ -v

+
+## How the transpiler works
+
+1. **Pre-pass** — scans for `@@keyword` postfix syntax and rewrites lines to prefix form
+2. **Tokenizer** — uses Python's `tokenize` module to swap `NAME` tokens. Strings and comments are never touched.
+3. **Runner** — compiles with the original filename so tracebacks point to your `.es.py` file, not a temp file

+# Getting Started
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install foreignthon
+pip install foreignthon-es   # add Spanish
+pip install foreignthon-ta   # add Tamil
+```
+
+For CLI use across projects, prefer pipx:
+
+```bash
+pipx install foreignthon
+```
+
+## Writing a file
+
+Name your file `script.<lang>.py` — the extension tells ForeignThon which language pack to use.
+
+```python
+# script.es.py
+definir sumar(a, b):
+    retornar a + b
+
+para i en rango(5):
+    imprimir(sumar(i, 1))
+```
+
+## Running
+
+```bash
+fpy run script.es.py        # transpile and run
+fpy compile script.es.py    # output a .compiled.py file
+fpy check script.es.py      # validate without running
+```
+
+## Overriding the language
+
+Via shebang comment at the top of the file:
+
+```python
+# foreignthon: es
+```
+
+Or via CLI flag:
+
+```bash
+fpy run script.py --lang es
+```
+
+## Errors
+
+Errors are shown in your language first, English below:
+[ES] ErrorDeDivisionCero: Error: división por cero
+[EN] ZeroDivisionError: division by zero
+File "script.es.py", line 3
+
+## Variable names
+
+Variable names are optional — you can use English or your language freely:
+
+```python
+# both work fine in the same file
+definir calculate(anchura, altura):
+    area = anchura * altura
+    retornar area
+```
+
+## Local dev setup
+
+```bash

+# Language Packs
+
+A language pack is a JSON file that maps foreign tokens to Python equivalents, published as `foreignthon-<code>` on PyPI.
+
+## Available packs
+
+| Package | Language | Install |
+|---|---|---|
+| `foreignthon-es` | Spanish | `pip install foreignthon-es` |
+| `foreignthon-ta` | Tamil | `pip install foreignthon-ta` |
+
+## JSON schema
+
+Every pack must have these top-level keys:
+
+```json
+{
+  "meta": {
+    "name": "Spanish",
+    "native_name": "Español",
+    "code": "es",
+    "version": "0.1.0",
+    "authors": []
+  },
+  "keywords":      { "si": "if", "para": "for", ... },
+  "builtins":      { "imprimir": "print", "rango": "range", ... },
+  "exceptions":    { "ErrorDeValor": "ValueError", ... },
+  "error_messages":{ "ValueError": "Error de valor", ... },
+  "stdlib":        { "matematicas": "math", ... }
+}
+```
+
+- **keywords** — Python reserved words (`if`, `for`, `def`, `class` …)
+- **builtins** — built-in functions (`print`, `range`, `len` …)
+- **exceptions** — built-in exception names (`ValueError`, `TypeError` …)
+- **error_messages** — translations for bilingual error output
+- **stdlib** — common standard library module names (`math`, `sys` …)
+
+Third-party library names (numpy, pandas etc.) are out of scope.
+
+## Creating a pack
+
+1. Copy `packages/langs/es/` to `packages/langs/<code>/`
+2. Rename every `foreignthon_es` → `foreignthon_<code>`
+3. Fill in `<code>.json` following the schema above
+4. Validate: `fpy pack packages/langs/<code>/src/foreignthon_<code>/<code>.json`
+5. Install locally: `pip install -e packages/langs/<code>`
+6. Test: `fpy run myscript.<code>.py`
+
+## Publishing a pack
+
+```bash
+python -m build packages/langs/<code>
+twine upload packages/langs/<code>/dist/*
+```
+
+Anyone can publish an independent `foreignthon-<code>` pack — you don't need to be a core maintainer.
+
+## How discovery works
+
+Packs register themselves via Python entry points:
+
+```toml
+# in the pack's pyproject.toml
+[project.entry-points."foreignthon.langs"]
+es = "foreignthon_es"
+```
+
+The core finds all installed packs automatically — no config needed.

+# Postfix Syntax
+
+Some languages (like Tamil) are grammatically SOV — the condition comes before the keyword, not after. ForeignThon supports this with the `@@` operator.
+
+## How it works
+
+```python
+# Standard prefix (works in every language)
+si x > 0:
+    imprimir(x)
+
+# Postfix with @@
+x > 0 @@si:
+    imprimir(x)
+```
+
+Both produce identical Python: `if x > 0:`. The `@@` means "take whatever is to my left, put the keyword first".
+
+## Rules
+
+- `@@` only rewrites the line it appears on — nothing else changes
+- Indentation rules are identical to normal Python
+- Prefix and postfix can be mixed freely in the same file
+- Works for any keyword in any language pack
+
+## Examples
+
+```python
+# if / else
+x > 0 @@si:
+    imprimir(x)
+sino:
+    pasar
+
+# while
+contador < 10 @@mientras:
+    contador += 1
+
+# inside a function — indentation unchanged
+definir comprobar(x):
+    x > 0 @@si:
+        imprimir("positivo")
+    sino:
+        imprimir("negativo")
+```
+
+## Why @@
+
+`@@` is not valid Python syntax so it never conflicts with existing code. Single `@` is used for decorators and matrix multiplication, so it was ruled out.
