One of the 40 sounds Nunzio listens for. When you read a sentence aloud, the app scores every single sound in it on your phone — this page is what he knows about this one: what tends to come out in its place, and what to do about it.
Make the vowel even shorter, quieter, and fully relaxed — a quick unstressed mumble in the center of the mouth.
“Too much passion for such a little vowel! This one is a mumble, a shrug, almost nothing — quick and lazy, bello!”Nunzio, when he hears it
The classic mix-ups involving this sound, one page per pair: banana vs ship, banana vs cup.
People often say “uh” when a word actually wants “ih” as in ship, “uh” as in cup — each of those pages shows the way back.
Reading about a sound is one thing. Hearing which ones you miss is another.
Nunzio records you reading a sentence, scores every sound in it on your phone — nothing is uploaded — and tells you the one thing worth fixing. Nunzio — Accent Coach is coming to the App Store and Google Play.
