No one understands me
For any of us who are learning or have learned another language – we all know that not being understood because of bad pronunciation can be really frustrating.
I’m happy to tell you that our online language learning program, Mango Languages, now offers a way to improve your pronunciation, with its new voice comparison feature!
This feature lets you record your voice, and then compares it visually to a recording of a native speaker. You can adjust your pronunciation until it visually lines up with the native speaker, and voila! You’re on your way to being understood.
You need a microphone built into your computer, or you can hook up an external one. You’ll find this feature in the Basic module of Mango, but not in the Complete lessons.
Look for the microphone icon to launch the voice comparison feature.

And as always, if you have any questions, please ask us!
