- photogrammetry 9y agoThat's pretty neat!
- zaqplm 9y agoI second your pronunciation tracking site. There are often trivial syllable mispronunciations endorsed by a community that if surfaced to the attention make significant improvement in speech clarity. What is more interesting than the not-obvious mistakes(that you cited as examples) is that there is a repetition(pattern) of pronunciation mistakes specific to a group(or all non-natives). For instance: http://ijleal.ump.edu.my/images/volume4/IJLEAL004.SHAK_et_al.pdf http://ijleal.ump.edu.my/images/volume4/IJLEAL004.SHAK_et_al... I would like to make this work.
