## A separate sound within the phrase

The student can correctly pronounce the word in the exercise and again lose the right sound in a quick phrase. ELSA Speak uses speech recognition and English pronunciation analysis. The clues may relate to sounds, stress and intonation. This allows you to select one recording area, listen to the sample and try again. It is useful to compare records made under the same conditions.

If words merge, start with a short phrase. Noise, echoes and too quiet recording make it difficult to understand whether the tip is related to pronunciation or to the quality of the sound.

## Check the phrase about the deadline

Take a teaching cue about when you can finish the job. Choose one word where the accent changes, or a couple of sounds that are often confused. Say the phrase as usual. After the feedback, listen to the difficult word in the sample and write down the whole line again. Then remove the text and repeat it at a freer pace.

Listen to the difference yourself. If the hint jumps between attempts, repeat the recording in a quiet place. To check the meaning, you can ask the interlocutor to say what time he heard.

## What the assessment shows

The score refers to the record that the service was able to process. It helps to choose a place for repetition. The clarity of the phrase and the appropriateness of the expression are also important for real conversation. Check the set of exercises and analytics for the selected subscription and device.
