• Choose a topic.
• Touch or the REC key to make a voice input.
First you will listen to a phrase recorded by the American speaker (if
this function is enabled).
• Position yourself near the built-in microphone at a distance of 3 –
6 inches (8 – 15 cm) and say the phrase.
The phrase you said will be recorded, automatically recognized and
compared to the model pronunciation. The results of the comparison
are given as Excellent, Good, Poor, Wrong or Please try again. The
Please try again result means that it is necessary to repeat the
phrase louder or to lower extraneous noises.
♦ Note: The quality of voice recognition strongly depends on the
level of external noise. Try to ensure silence in the room where
you practice pronunciation.
• If you want to listen to a model pronunciation of a phrase before
you make a voice input, touch
and make sure the First listen
to the phrase option is selected.
