How does the Chinese pronunciation tool score my speech?

You read a short prompt aloud and the AI compares your recording against native speech, syllable by syllable. Every syllable is broken into three parts — the initial, the final and the tone — and each is scored separately, so you see whether "shì" failed because of the sh-, the -i or the fourth tone.

What does the test actually measure?

This checks pronunciation, not your vocabulary or HSK level. You can finish after eight prompts for an initial report. See your results first. Create a free account if you want to keep your report and web progress.

Do I need to install anything to check my Chinese pronunciation?

No. The test runs in your browser and only needs microphone permission. Apps for iOS and Android exist if you want to keep practising, but nothing needs installing to get your score.
