THE VOWEL ANALYZER A real-time formant analyzer. Speak or hold a vowel — the app plots where it lands in the English vowel space (F1×F2) and shows how close you are to the target. See exactly whether your /æ/ is too far back or your /ɪ/ too tense. 17+ PRONUNCIATION DRILLS • TH Drill — record /θ/ and /ð/, replay, and self-evaluate • Stress Trainer — match your pitch curve to a native speaker's • Connected Speech — natural forms first (gonna, wanna, T-flap), then the full sentence • Schwa & Weak Forms — reduce unstressed syllables naturally • Word Stress — PREsent vs. preSENT, with peak detection • Word Endings — why cats/dogs/buses and walked/played/wanted don't end the same way • Tricky Spellings — clear vs. dark L, CH as /tʃ,k,ʃ/, and the notorious "ough" • Intonation Trainer — overlay your pitch on a native speaker's curve • Shadowing — hear a phrase, record yourself, compare • Reading Aloud — Beginner/Intermediate/Advanced passages, up to 60 seconds • Listening Test — minimal-pair discrimination (ship vs. sheep) • Challenge Mode — hit 10 vowels before the timer runs out • Vowel & Consonant Pairs — minimal-pair drilling with live voice analysis PHYSICAL MOUTH TRAINING 19 muscle exercises for Lips, Jaw, and Tongue, each naming the exact muscle it targets. Animated diagrams guide each movement. Quick, Full, or Custom sessions. Most learners skip this — it's why their accent doesn't change. ACCENT DIAGNOSTIC Not sure where to start? A 10-word listening quiz covering vowels, consonants, TH, and reductions — 2 minutes, and it shows exactly which sounds your ear needs work on. SMART QUEUE Sound Native tracks your accuracy and ranks what to practice next: Priority (below 70%), Keep Practicing, Explore. Prefer structure? A guided 27-lesson syllabus takes you through every drill in order — browse it anytime under "All Lessons." LETTER SOUNDS REFERENCE A free A-to-Z spelling-to-sound guide — tap any letter to hear every sound it can make, with an example word (silent E in "cape," soft C in "city," flap T in "water"). RECORDINGS LIBRARY Save your best takes from any drill and play them back anytime. Hearing yourself from week 1 vs. week 4 is one of the most motivating parts of accent work. PROGRESS & STREAKS Daily streak, per-vowel accuracy trends, consonant scores, challenge scores, and a 28-day activity calendar — tracked automatically. BUILT FOR YOUR LANGUAGE Set your native language (Russian, Spanish, Mandarin, or Other) for targeted tips based on known L1 interference patterns. FREE VS.
