Zvonko: Russian Pronunciation

Zvonko is a speech trainer for the Russian language. Learn to pronounce the sounds that learners and native speakers struggle with most — the rolled Р, the hard Л, hissing Ш, Ж, Ч, Щ and whistling С, З, Ц — and make your Russian clear and confident. Ten minutes a day, in front of a mirror, at your own pace. 12 RUSSIAN SOUNDS, STEP BY STEP For every sound you get the whole journey: • preparation — mouth exercises chosen for this sound; • learning the sound — what your lips and tongue do, with a mouth diagram; • syllables, words (sound at the start, in the middle, at the end) and phrases; • rhymes and tongue twisters. LISTEN, RECORD, COMPARE Every card has a reference recording. Record yourself, listen back and compare. Your first recording is kept in the diary, so in a week you can hear the difference. Recordings never leave your phone. MOUTH EXERCISES 25 classic articulation exercises with an animated mouth diagram and a timer, plus ready-made routines for each group of sounds. TONGUE TWISTERS AND DICTION 124 Russian tongue twisters sorted by sound and difficulty, a twister of the day and favourites. BREATHING AND VOICE Exercises for a long steady exhale and a resonant voice, and short programs: morning warm-up, before a talk, before a call. WORD STRESS AND SPEECH PACE • Nearly 200 Russian words that are stressed wrong most often. • Read a text aloud and find out how many words per minute you speak. FOR KIDS Animal sounds for toddlers, "tongue tales" (exercises told as a story), rhymes and a daily warm-up. Practise together for 5–10 minutes a day. A PLAN FOR EVERY DAY Choose your goals and 5, 10 or 15 minutes a day. The app builds a daily plan, reminds you and tracks your streak and progress for each sound. FREE AND AWAYTIX PASS Free: the first four stages of every sound, 20 tongue twisters, the basic warm-up, part of the exercises, two word-stress levels and one tale.
