English Accents: Listening

One sentence a day, in your English. 8.0 is built around one idea. Every day, one sentence from a real scene — a coffee shop, a check-in desk, a doctor's office — in the English you're learning. Its melody, drawn as a curve. A note on why it's said that way. And one tap to hear how a Brit, an Australian or an Indian speaker would say the same words, the two curves laid over each other. • Today: the sentence, its curve, the note, the comparison, and a finish for the day. Sixteen months of scenes, one a day. • The curve is the app's one language now. Pitch as a line, stress as a heavier, brighter stretch — and the stressed words underlined in the sentence itself. • Speaking test: your take is drawn on the same curve as the model's, aligned to it, and scored on the words you said and the melody you gave them. Miss a word, or say "I'm" for "I am", and you're still in the nineties. • Library: the map of scenes, with the book's chapter beside each one. • A reminder, if you want one — tomorrow's scene, at eight. Nothing about streaks. Coming from 7.x: your English, your notes and your progress carry over. Today starts at the first sentence you haven't heard.
