First, listen to the audio, then type in the word's spelling. Tap the four cards that appear on the screen to enter the alphabet. If you make a mistake, you will lose an apple. The game is over when you run out of apples, and if you cannot complete the spelling within 10 seconds, the game is also over. If you get 1000 points, you will get a badge and be qualified to challenge the next level. Unfortunately, in the current version, only level 1 is available. Other levels are currently under preparation. Please look forward to it!
