Go to Listen →Say a word and have it scored, recite an answer aloud, or hear any word pronounced. Turn silent reading into speaking practice with instant, kind feedback.
Go to Say It →Play 61 instruments and 1,220 sound recipes, build a melody, drop a sound into any page, take the audio quiz and vote in the poll. The whole toolbox of sound.
Go to Make →The fastest way to sharpen an ear. Each game plays a sound and asks one thing back — no reading, no lecture. Great for kids and language learners alike.
Hear an instrument, tap the picture that made the sound. A gentle first lesson in telling a piano from a flute from a drum, one clip at a time.
Listen to a voice and tap who it belongs to. Trains the ear to notice the timbre and pitch that make one singer sound different from another.
See it, hear it, sort it — strings, wind, percussion. Learn how instruments group into families by the way they make their sound.
Paint with sounds — every stroke adds a note or a texture to a growing scene. A free, joyful way to feel how sounds layer into something whole.
Hear where the beat lands in a word — PHO-to-graph or pho-TOG-ra-phy. Catching the stress is often what makes speech sound natural, more than the sounds themselves.
Did you hear ship or sheep? Two words one sound apart, round after round — the drill that trains an ear for sounds your first language may not separate.
Reading a word is not the same as saying it. These surfaces let you speak, hear, and check — turning quiet study into real practice out loud.
Say a word into the microphone and get scored on how close you landed. It listens with the browser’s speech recognition, then shows you exactly where to adjust — practice, not judgement.
Say a physics answer out loud and explain it in your own words. A different kind of quiz — one that checks whether you can teach the idea, not just tick a box.
Generate rich, playful English on demand and hear it read aloud. A quick way to catch how a sentence actually sounds — and to proof your own writing by ear.
1,700+ words in English and Hindi, each one you can tap to hear pronounced. Built so a child meets a new word by sound and meaning together, not spelling alone.
A fresh word every hour, spoken aloud with its meaning. A tiny, repeatable habit that grows vocabulary and pronunciation without any sit-down study.
Hear a word, then spell it back. Links the sound of a word to its letters — the exact skill that spelling from dictation is really testing.
Under the hub sits a real sound engine — instruments, ambient textures and melodies, all synthesised live in the browser from small recipes. Play them, rate them, or drop one into any page.
61 instruments across five families, each with a 20-gesture vocabulary — single notes, runs, signature techniques and interface roles. 1,220 searchable, metadata-rich recipes in one bench, filterable by mood, energy and use.
The full library of 100-plus nature and ambient recipes — rain, waves, birds, wind — every one playable and star-rated. The audition room for the sound engine.
39 nature sounds synthesised live, with an animated living scene, real backdrops and ten looping journeys. The calm room to keep quietly playing behind your work.
Play a short melody through any instrument voice — music box, piano, flute. The workshop for turning a few notes into a felt little theme.
A real playable piano in the browser — press the keys, hear the notes, follow simple songs. The place to go from naming instruments to actually playing one.
A recorded voice is the only audio that keeps playing when the screen locks — so this is the spine of long, unhurried listening. Silence is the default; sound punctuates the gaps, matched to meaning, never wallpaper.
All 700 verses, with audio in Hindi and English, male and female voices. Read along, listen, or let it play — one life’s worth of counsel, recorded to last.
Om, Amen, Hū and the seed syllables of the world, to sit with. A quiet room for the oldest sounds people have used to gather attention and steady the breath.
The forty verses, recited with the text to follow along. Listen through once, or return to a single verse — the words carry whether you know them or are meeting them new.
Turn any written text into listening. The wizard reads long passages in your device’s most natural voice, chunked so nothing cuts off — proof a draft by ear, or give any page a spoken version.
Curious what is actually happening when you hear a note, a voice or an echo? A few careful pieces on the physics of sound, with interactive demos.
Real questions drawn from the sound work here — recorded voice versus text-to-speech, minimal pairs, why silence is the default. Each with a clear answer and kind feedback. Take five, then take five more.
Cast a vote and see where everyone lands.
A browser can only speak with the voices installed on that device. When a machine has just one real English voice, a ‘female’ button is often that one voice pitch-shifted higher — which sounds robotic. The fix is to pick the device’s best natural voice, like Edge’s neural en-IN Neerja or Safari’s enhanced Samantha, and let the listener lock it in.
| Recorded voice | Text-to-speech |
|---|---|
| Keeps playing when the screen locks | Paused the moment the tab is hidden |
| Sounds the same for everyone | A different voice on every device |
| Costs money and time to produce | Free, on any text, on demand |
| Best for a flagship listen | Best for reading any page aloud |
Only a real recorded audio file survives a backgrounded tab or a locked screen. Live sound synthesis and browser text-to-speech are paused the moment the tab is hidden, so recordings are the permanent spine of listen-while-you-work; synthesis and TTS are for foreground preview.
A minimal pair is two words separated by a single sound — ship and sheep, bat and bad. Hearing and saying the difference trains the ear for sounds your first language may not separate, which is exactly what the Minimal Pair Duels game drills.
It is synthesised live in the browser from small recipes — rain, waves, birdsong, wind — so each texture loops forever with no audio file to download, and can vary slightly every cycle so a repeat still feels alive.
The voice is the hero and sound is punctuation, never wallpaper. A bed that never stops becomes irritating, so sound appears only in the gap between verses — a short, enveloped cue matched to the verse’s meaning — and every verse begins in silence.
No. Everything runs in the browser — the ear-training games, the instrument and sound library, pronunciation practice, and the players. The voice tools speak with the voices already on your device, and let you pick and lock the best natural one.
Read, build and craft — from your first word to a voice of your own, with tools for every kind of writing.
