About

German Dictation

Read full description

German Dictation turns listening into active German practice. Hear authentic German clearly, focus on every sound, and write what you understand. Choose how you want to train. Dictation mode asks you to listen and type the complete German sentence. Arrange Words mode gives you the sentence as shuffled word tiles, so you can rebuild the correct order while still relying on the recording. Both modes share lesson progress, the timer, and the heart system. LOCAL GERMAN AUDIO Train with clear recordings stored on your device. Select a female or male German voice, then play each sentence at 0.75x, 1x, or 1.25x speed with pitch correction. Replay as often as needed. Audio never starts by surprise, so you stay in control of each attempt. 30 PROGRESSIVE UNITS Work through 3,000 German sentence exercises across practical themes. Your completion status and current position are saved, making it easy to continue where you stopped. TWO WAYS TO CHECK DICTATION Use Flexible checking for learner-friendly comparison or Strict checking when punctuation, capitalization, and exact form matter. Clear feedback helps you understand whether the issue came from spelling, a missing word, an extra word, or word order. ARRANGE WORDS Build German sentences one tile at a time. Each tile keeps its spelling and punctuation, repeated words remain fair to solve, and the original shuffled order stays stable when you reset. Complete the full arrangement, check your answer, and learn from the result without seeing the solution too early. GERMAN WORD LISTENING Study a focused word set drawn from every unit. Flash cards show the German word and example first, while the English meaning stays hidden until you choose to reveal it. The listening quiz asks you to hear a German word and spell it. Study and quiz modes share the same local recordings, voice choice, and playback controls. DAILY LISTENING CHALLENGE Practice three German dictation prompts each day: easy, medium, and hard. The three prompts follow one useful daily setting and gradually increase in length and complexity. A 400-day rotation offers 1,200 dedicated sentences, along with timing, streak tracking, history, and repeat attempts. MISTAKE REVIEW Incorrect game answers can become focused review items. Return to recent mistakes, listen again when audio is available, compare your last answer, and correct the sentence. Successful correction removes the saved item, helping the review list stay relevant. MORE LANGUAGE WORKSPACES Explore German grammar lessons, guided writing, template cloze tasks, and draft comparison tools. These supporting activities help you move from recognition to accurate sentence production. MADE FOR REAL PRACTICE • Female and male German voices • Slow, normal, and fast playback • Light and dark themes • Seven interface languages • Saved learning mode and voice preference • Font-size controls for dictation input • Local lesson progress and review history Whether you are starting with basic phrases or sharpening advanced listening accuracy, German Dictation gives you a structured way to hear, build, type, check, and improve. Put on your headphones, choose a unit, and make every sentence count.
