I was thinking the same thing. Perhaps creating an API around PyCantonese?

My thought is that if there's a common data format for a Cantonese sentence with jyutping/yale/traditional + translation(s), the user could then pick what to display.

It could then also be worked into games/learning exercises. Placeholders could be made with a number of options so users could learn how to slot different adjectives into sentences, for example.

(I have the same username on Reddit, by the way. Sorry I never got to test it out for you!)
