Yes. Each guide has a word recording and an example sentence in Nora’s AI voice. Use the speaker button to listen or replay. Choose 1.00×, 0.75×, or 0.50× to find a comfortable pace.

Do I need to learn the phonetic symbols?

No. Start by listening, then try the simple sound guide. The symbols between slashes are IPA, the International Phonetic Alphabet. They describe the written guide’s reference pronunciation. CAPITAL letters in the simple guide mark the strongest syllable.

Which accent will I hear?

Nora’s recordings use her natural Indian English accent. The written sound guides, IPA, and tips use an American English reference, so some sounds may differ from the audio. English has many valid accents. Focus on clear communication.
