App Description

Sounds Like Chinese is an ear-training GAME designed to help you distinguish between the unique sounds of the Mandarin Chinese language!  It is FIVE apps in ONE !!! It will take you from recognition to distinction in the following areas:
 
+ Basic sounds (phonemes)
+ Blended sound
+ Tones
+ Pinyin (Romanized characters)
+ Zhuyin (Traditional characters)
 
All of this in a fun and engaging game designed for both adult and child learners (5+)! Challenge your friends and chart your continued improvement.
 
Why spend hundreds of hours learning vocabulary if you can’t pronounce the words correctly or understand them when they are spoken by someone else? Sounds Like Chinese is perfect for beginning students wanting to accelerate their learning or advanced learners working towards exact comprehension and accent-free speech. 
 
Sounds Like Chinese provides instant feedback! A similar technique has been shown in academic research to improve phoneme sound distinction by up to 60% in ONE week!!!
 
If you have ever wanted to learn Mandarin Chinese or improve your existing speech and comprehension then this app is for you!
