Do you second-guess yourself when writing "accommodation"? Pause before typing "embarrassment"? You're not alone — most adults have a handful of words they've never quite nailed. Better Spelling for Adults is a spelling trainer built for grown-ups. Hear a word, type it, and get instant feedback. The words you misspell get drilled through spaced repetition until they stick. HOW IT WORKS Tap play to hear a word spoken aloud, along with a context sentence so you know exactly which word is meant. Type your spelling and check it. Get it right? Move on. Get it wrong? The word goes into your Practice Bank, where spaced repetition drills it until you can spell it three times in a row from memory. 5 DIFFICULTY LEVELS Start where you need to — not where someone else thinks you should. • Beginner — everyday words that trip people up (necessary, separate, definitely) • Intermediate — trickier patterns (accommodation, surveillance, bureaucracy) • Advanced — professional and academic vocabulary (ophthalmology, idiosyncrasy) • Expert — words that demand etymological awareness (chiaroscuro, synecdoche) • Spelling Bee — competition-level words for the truly ambitious (autochthonous, scherenschnitte) 8,000 WORDS WITH CONTEXT Every word comes with a context sentence, so you're not just memorising letter sequences — you're learning words in use. BRITISH & AMERICAN ENGLISH Choose your English variant and get the right spellings. British/Australian English (colour, organise, behaviour) or American English (color, organize, behavior) — each with its own complete word list. WHAT'S FREE The first 100 words at each level are completely free — 500 words to get started. A single purchase unlocks everything: all 8,000 words, custom word support with AI-generated sentences, and the full curriculum across all levels. FEATURES • Text-to-speech pronunciation for every word • Context sentences with audio playback • Spaced repetition that adapts to your mistakes • Add your own custom words to practise • Track your accuracy, known words, and mastered words • Works offline — no internet needed for practice • Light and dark mode • No ads, no subscriptions — one purchase unlocks everything
