See every sound
Each word and each sound comes back with a score out of 100, and the weakest sound is named so you know what to fix.
How the scores work: every sound in the word is scored out of 100, you see all of them, and they are ranked weakest to strongest so you know what to drill next. What we won’t do is pretend to know which sound you said instead of the target — the engine returns scores, not a transcript.
The sounds that decide your accent
The tapped r (pero)
Flick the tongue tip once against the ridge behind the upper teeth — it is exactly the American 't' in 'water'. For written rr aim for a longer roll; the engine scores both here.
The r in clusters (tres)
The same quick tongue-tap when r sits next to another consonant or closes a syllable: tres, puerta, hablar. Keep it short — never the English curled-back r.
The ñ sound (niño)
Press the middle of the tongue against the roof of the mouth and say 'n' and 'y' at the same moment — like the 'ny' of 'canyon' fused into one sound.
The Spanish j sound (rojo)
A rough 'h' made by raising the back of the tongue until the air scrapes — stronger than English h; spelled j, or g before e/i.
The ll sound (calle)
An 'l' and a 'y' pressed into one sound with the middle of the tongue on the roof of the mouth. Most speakers today just say 'y' here (yeísmo) — that is accepted too.
The y sound (yo)
Like the 'y' in 'yes' but with a little friction — almost a gentle 'j' of 'jeep'; spelled y, or ll for most speakers.
Scores rank your own sounds against each other so you know what to drill first. They are not an accuracy certificate and not an exam grade.
Questions
Is this free?+
Yes. You get a handful of free takes a day with no account. The TonePerfect app has unlimited practice with thousands of Spanish words and sentences.
What can I paste?+
Any Spanish text up to 120 characters — a single word, a phrase, or a full sentence. Text in another script is refused before recording so you never pay a take for a wrong paste.
How is the score calculated?+
The engine aligns your recording with the reference and scores each word and each sound from 0 to 100. Scores rank your own sounds against each other so you know what to drill first; they are not an accuracy certificate or an exam grade.
Can I practice text from other websites?+
Yes — paste it here, or install the Spanish AI Pronunciation Trainer Chrome extension: select text on any page, right-click, and it opens on this page ready to record.
What happens to my recording?+
It is sent to our scoring engine and kept, with the reference text, to improve the engine. Recordings are never published or shared.
