What's New in Get Rid of Russian Accent
3.2.1
August 28, 2024
Added support for recording via AirPods, updated the application icon.
After 20 years of using English finally decided to work on my accent and at first found a sister book on Amazon. Found app much easier to use than a book with a CD. Some pronunciations with added spelling were revelations. The underlined difference between Russian and English pronunciations of similarly written sounds is seriously helpful. The verses and tongue-twisters are quite fun, not as difficult as seems at first. Would be good to see more phonetic spellings in every lecture. Overall an excellent and unique product.
