For learning English and checking pronunciation! How to use the free text reading service called "Ondoku"

When I am studying English, I always come across "What? How do you read this word again?"

Even if you studied it once, you will forget if you don't use it frequently. When studying English, it is often necessary to re-examine how to read a forgotten word.

Also, in order to read the sentence smoothly, it is often necessary to know not only the pronunciation of each word but also the pronunciation of sentence.

How do you check the pronunciation of an English word and sentence?

  • I want to confirm the pronunciation of a word
  • I want to check the pronunciation of sentences
  • Supports American and British English

Ondoku, a fascinating reading site that meets your needs for learning various English.

This time, we will introduce a service called "Ondoku" that is very convenient for checking English pronunciation.

Ondoku, a service that makes it easy to read English

Ondoku is a relatively new text-to-speech service that was just released in May 2020.

Unlike old-fashioned text-to-speech software, it is simple and easy to operate.

It is used by people who want to read various sentences, and it is also used by many corporations as well as individuals.

  • Narration such as Youtube,
  • Creating teaching materials at schools and cram schools,
  • Utilization for in-house training, etc.

It also supports commercial use.

In addition to such usage, this service is also perfect for checking pronunciation of people who are studying English!

In addition to American English, it also supports British English, and there are multiple speakers such as women and men, so you can choose your favorite voice .

In addition to this, it supports 33 languages, so it may be a bit strange, but you can also try the pronunciation in a slightly different area such as Indian English.

It is interesting because I understand the difference quite a bit!

Basically, it can be used free of charge, and if you want to increase the number of characters read aloud, you need to use it for a fee.

However, if you just want to check the pronunciation of English, you can use it even in the free usage range.
