- Move from just knowing what a word means, to confidently using a word when you talk.
- Double-click to select, and then right-click on any word to get a pop-up that tells you which syllable to stress (make longer), and what vowel sound (color) you should use, as you say the word out loud.
- Listen to the vowel sound recording and then the word recording, and the visual and musical parts of your brain will help you to “hear” it in a way that is not possible with just your language brain.
