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.

How to actually practise this

  1. 1

    Record any line

    A sentence, a word, an answer to a prompt — anything spoken works.

    Open Practice
  2. 2

    Open a flagged word

    Every word gets a clarity verdict; tap a red or amber one to see the detail.

  3. 3

    Compare IPA side by side

    Your sound and the target sound, written out, not just described.

  4. 4

    Read the articulation cue

    The sound chart shows tongue and lip placement for the exact phoneme.

    Open Phonics
  5. 5

    Isolate a vowel slip

    If the flagged sound is a vowel, drill it on its own before it's back inside a sentence.

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.
