PhraseByPhrase: Shadowing

Understand real spoken language and speak it yourself.

Most language apps train vocabulary and few train listening.

This app is built for learners who want real comprehension — not streaks.

Train with real podcasts and audiobooks.
Work phrase by phrase.
See transcripts, translations, and AI-powered explanations for difficult parts.
Repeat each phrase out loud and get instant feedback on your pronunciation.

No games, artificial dialogues and simplified sentences.
Just real language — structured for focused practice.

How it works

• Choose from millions of podcast episodes or import your own audio
• The audio is split into clear, manageable phrases
• Read the transcript
• See translations instantly
• Get explanations when something is unclear
• Repeat and train your listening actively
• Record yourself saying the phrase (shadowing) and listen back
• Get a pronunciation score — every word is marked in color, so you know what to practice

You control the pace and train real comprehension — and real speaking.

Built for learners who want depth.

This app is ideal for:

• Intermediate and advanced learners
• Students preparing for exams
• Professionals working in a foreign language
• Anyone who wants to understand native speakers naturally — and sound more like them

If you are looking for a game — this is not it.
If you want to truly understand spoken language — this is for you.

Train your listening and speaking like a skill.

The pronunciation check is available in 18 languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese.
