English Pronunciation is Simple Now.
Are you or your child having difficulties in memorising the correct pronunciations of hundreds of thousands of English words?
Many native English speakers can pronounce and understand the spoken English words easily but cannot read out the written words correctly.
On the other hand, many native Japanese, Chinese and other non-native English speakers can read volumes of English books and literatures and understand the meaning of all the words they contain, but struggle when reading them out aloud.
Both groups would most likely resort to memorising the correct pronunciations of the words and then will be struggling to recall them when speaking.
Now you dont have to.
Although there are hundreds of thousands of English words, there are only 26 consonant sounds and 21 vowel sounds, which combine in endless different ways to form all these words.
These sounds are in turn coded into English letters. So, to pronounce any English word correctly, one has just to say out all these English codes used in the combination to form that word.
Once you have become familiar with the English codes of these sounds, you can then easily pronounce almost any English word correctly.
This app simply helps you to achieve just that, easily and quickly, in one simple mobile screen, anytime, anywhere.
It is suitable for all age groups. Both the beginners and advanced learners will find this app useful.
It is also suitable for both native English speakers and non-native speakers.
