Pronunciation correction: fix the sound, not the whole word
Generic apps tell you a word was "wrong" and leave you guessing why. sayit tells you which sound inside the word slipped, shows your IPA next to the target IPA, and gives you one articulation cue — where your tongue or lips need to go — to fix it.

Questions
Straight answers
What's the difference between an accent and a pronunciation error?
An accent is a consistent, understandable way of making a sound. An error is a sound that changes the word's meaning or makes it hard to follow. sayit flags the second, not the first.
Which sounds does sayit check?
All 44 sounds of English, consonants and vowels. See the full sound-by-sound guide.
Can I drill one sound contrast at a time?
Yes — minimal pair pages isolate exactly two sounds against each other, like ship vs sheep.
