Built for people who already speak English well, and want to be heard the first time.
The honest bit
You know the words. You have read the books. But the vowels travel with you, and a flat a or a sounded r tells the whole room where you learned them. BritSpeech closes that last gap, the one no grammar app touches.
How it works
01 · Read
Each line is rigged with the vowels and consonants that separate British from American. Read them like you mean it.
“On Tuesday the duke knew the hot news from the little cottage.”
02 · Score
BritSpeech weighs your weakest sounds and tunes to your voice, all on-device. No studio, no waiting.

The eight tells
The app grades each one on its own. Master the two that matter most for you, and the accent follows.
The R after a vowel goes quiet, so car becomes cah.
Bath, grass and dance stretch into a long, dark ah.
Hot, dog and off take a short, rounded O at the back.
Go and home start in the centre, then glide, never a flat oh.
Water and better keep a clean T, never a soft American D.
Tune and news keep the Y, so tune is tyoon, not toon.
Cup, love and money sit open, central and forward.
The tune lifts on the key word, then falls to land the sentence.
