SingersBabel.com, the online foreign language diction resource, announces the launch of its first mobile app – BabelSounds™.
BabelSounds™ teaches the basic sounds of American English, French, Italian, Latin (Ecclesiastical & Germanic), and Russian (more languages in production). This powerful learning tool was created by diction teachers at top music conservatories specifically for singers and conductors.
BabelSounds™ utilizes the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) to show phonetic spellings paired with demonstrations by native speakers. For each phonetic symbol there are two examples of words containing that sound/symbol, each listed with a phonetic guide and spoken demonstration. It’s so easy! Select a language. Click on a sound/symbol or example as many times as you want. Listen carefully and repeat. It is like practice with a native speaker.
The free download of BabelSounds™ includes American English. The languages below can be purchased in-app for $1.99 each or all five (5) bundled together for $7.99. French, Italian, Latin – Ecclesiastical, Latin – Germanic, and Russian. More coming! Available for iOS and Android. www.BabelSounds.com
