Can I re-check one word without redoing a whole passage?

Yes — if one word gets flagged in a longer take, you don't have to re-read the whole passage to work on it. Every word has its own lookup page where you can hear the correct pronunciation and record just that single word for a fresh, scored verdict, completely separate from whatever passage it originally came from.

30-second version: Look up any word to get its own page with the target pronunciation, IPA, and a "say it" button. Record yourself saying the word alone, and it's scored in reference mode against that one word — the same per-sound scoring a full take gets, just isolated to the word you actually need to fix. Once it comes back clean there, you've verified the fix rather than guessing it stuck.

Why practice a word in isolation instead of just rereading the sentence?

Because rereading a whole sentence to fix one sound re-introduces every variable that sentence has — pacing, the words around it, whatever else might slip. Isolating the single word removes all of that, so if it scores clean on its own, you know the sound itself is fixed, not that you got lucky with the rest of the sentence that time. It's a faster, more targeted loop: hear it, say it, see the verdict, try again if needed — without the overhead of re-reading a paragraph for one word's sake.

What does the word's own page actually show me?

The same kind of detail a flagged word gets inside a full take: real IPA for the target pronunciation, a way to hear it spoken correctly, and — when you record yourself — a scored comparison between what you said and what was expected, phoneme by phoneme. It's built specifically to answer "how do I actually say this," not just "what does this look like written phonetically."

Is the scoring different for a single word than for a whole passage?

No — it's the same reference-mode pipeline. Recording just the word sends it through scoring exactly the way any word inside a longer take would be scored, aligned against the target phonemes and returned with a clarity verdict. The only difference is scope: instead of getting one verdict buried inside a paragraph's worth of results, you get that one word's full breakdown as the entire result.

How do I find the word I need to recheck?

Search for it directly at the word lookup hub, or, if it came up flagged inside a take, use the word itself as your starting point — most flagged words are common enough to search for directly. From there you get the pronunciation, the practice recorder, and (where available) the word used in an example sentence too, so you can check it both alone and in context.

Single word versus full passage rechecking

Does this replace the per-word inspector inside a take?

They're complementary, not competing. The inspector is where you first find out which sound slipped, inside the context of a real take. Rechecking the word on its own page is what you do afterward, once you know what to fix and want to confirm it's actually fixed — a short, focused loop you can repeat as many times as it takes.

Try it

Pick a word you've had trouble with and look it up at /pronounce — for example /pronounce/pleasant — hear the target pronunciation, then record yourself saying it and see the verdict come back scored, on that word alone.
