Set your voice range

Two short recordings tell the app where the top and bottom of your comfortable voice are. Tones are judged relative to that range.
1. Say 妈 mā as high and level as feels comfortable, like holding a sung note for a second.
2. Say 马 mǎ and let it sink as low as feels comfortable before it rises.

Add a sentence

Generated automatically, with tone changes such as 你好 → ní hǎo already applied. Correct any syllable that's wrong.

欢迎测试 Inkabao Welcome, and thanks for testing

这是一个练习普通话声调的网站,我想听听你的真实想法。 It's a site for practising Mandarin tones, and I'd love your honest opinion.
  1. 先设置声音音域:点页面上方提示里的 “Set voice range” 按钮,录两次,约30秒。
    First set your voice range: press “Set voice range” in the notice at the top and record twice (30 seconds).
  2. 做一次今天的练习:在 Today 里点 “Start session”,大约10分钟。
    Do one Today session: press “Start session” on the Today tab (about 10 minutes).
  3. 填写反馈:练习结束后反馈表会自动打开,填好后点“发送”。
    Give feedback: the form opens when you finish. Fill it in and press Send.
  4. 分数不对时:如果你说对了但分数很低,点分数下面的 “分数不对?”。
    If you said it right but scored low, press “分数不对?” under the score.
请用电脑上的 Chrome 或 Edge,第一次录音时点“允许”使用麦克风。界面是英文的,没关系。 Use Chrome or Edge on a computer and allow the microphone when asked. The interface is in English; that's fine.
