Make mispronunciations a thing of the past with the world’s most accurate and comprehensive pronunciation dictionary. Unlike most other apps no synthetic pronunciation is used, with every word carefully researched, and professionally recorded. "What I love is it uses a real human voice for audio playback, and has words for pronunciation that my dictionary apps don't even have for definitions." "I feel like I now have a secret, powerful, linguistic advantage!" Features: ■ Over 180,000 individually recorded words & phrases ■ Comprehensive dictionary including medical, legal, scientific, industry jargon and even current affairs and names ■ Accurate pronunciation of heteronyms (words which are spelled the same but pronounced differently depending on context) e.g, tear, dove, close, live, alternate, graduate, etc ■ Auto-complete and spelling suggestions ■ Pronunciation history ■ Favourites ■ Search definitions online Note: An internet connection is required to download the audio and perform new searches, as the Howjsay database is too large to download and is continuously updated.

Learning to Read

Growing up I didn’t learn to read by embracing phonics. For me, words themselves were intricate pictures with audible names I remembered by their overall appearance. I was 70 years old before I realized why I had no idea how others could pronounce words they had never heard spoken before or spell words they had never seen. This app has been a tremendous help to me in my ongoing process of learning to apply phonics to my speech and writing endeavors.

Found on the web, app is alright

Hey, rather than a app, it would be more functional and useful to have this as an extension or script that appears in the options menus for the bowers, and for the long press on selected text. It’s just silly to have open an app or website. When, I really should be able to highlight/select the word and either/both long press and have “pronounce” as an option, like “look up”, “search the web”, etc.And/or, the browser menu that contains “pronounce/howjsay” as an option, such as, print, look up, etc., is an option.

Howsay accurate and clear

When it comes to pronunciation, the internet is the Wild West. They just take a few people and have them say the word and don’t check to see how correct the pronunciation is. Frequently, I feel their method of saying the word is incorrect. I go to many sources to see what is the real standard. I find the Oxford Dictionary is very good, (sometimes swayed too much by Britain’s pronunciations), American heritage is excellent but Howsay is almost always right on!

Great learning tool for those suffering with a learning disability

This is a great app to use if you suffer with dyslexia. Sometimes hearing to the words pronounced aids with the learning the phonics of the words. Also, useful to see the words broken down in phonics and definition, then listen to the app pronunciation ensuring you have pronounced the word correctly.
