Sound Native Accent Reduction vs Mimic

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?

Learn the sexiest accent. Or the smoothest. Or the friendliest. Your accent introduces you before you do. Make it say what you want. HOW IT WORKS Listen. Real sentences in a real voice, not robot audio. Mimic. Say it back. In a second you know which sound betrayed you. Own it. Ten minutes a day until it stops being practice and starts being your voice. PRACTICE FREELY Say it as many times as you need. Every recording is scored on your phone and never uploaded. Nobody hears you practice. Not even us.
