9.4 Interactive pronunciation training

With AI-supported pronunciation training, you not only learn new vocabulary, but also how to pronounce it correctly.

In AI-supported pronunciation training, the learner speaks the displayed words or sentences directly into the microphone. The AI analyzes the pronunciation and provides immediate feedback. The displayed percentage shows how well your pronunciation would be understood if 10,000 native speakers listened to your pronunciation. The higher the value, the closer your pronunciation is to that of a native speaker. Important: AI-supported pronunciation training is currently not available for all 30 European languages. Some Slavic languages, in particular, are not yet supported.
