Show HN: Tool for Quick English Pronunciation Practice with AI Feedback (englishpractice.io)
1 points by maxtermed 497 days ago
As an immigrant who learned English as an adult, I built this tool to solve a specific problem: "How do I say this phrase in English?" It's not a course - it's a simple utility that lets you:

1. Input text in 15+ languages or English (converts everything to English) 2. Hear pronunciation 3. Practice speaking it 4. Get instant AI feedback on accuracy

Tech stack: - Flask + Bootstrap UI - Google Translate + TTS APIs - OpenAI for phonetic guidance - Azure Speech for pronunciation scoring - WebAudio API for recording

Live: https://englishpractice.io/

Looking for feedback on: 1. UX/UI improvements 2. Language-specific issues (especially with non-Latin scripts) 3. Browser compatibility

All feedback welcome.
