Tone trainer

Tones change meaning: mā (妈 mother), mǎ (马 horse), mà (骂 to scold). Hear each tone, train your ear on words that differ only by tone, then say them and get every syllable scored by AI.

The four tones

Tone changes: two third tones in a row — the first becomes a second tone (你好 ní hǎo); 不 is bú before a fourth tone; 一 is yí before a fourth tone and yì before the others.

Listen and choose

0/0 right

Listen, then choose the pinyin with the right tone.

Say it, get scored

Listen to the model, then say the word; AI shows which syllables have the wrong tone.

些

xiē

classifier indicating a small amount or small number greater than 1: some, a few, several

Record

AI scoring is paused; the recording is kept and will be scored later.
