If you are using Anki to learn a language, you must need a Words-Audio Library (单词音频库)to help you remember each words' pronunciation and spelling. I have downloaded Longman Updated Audio library. It's about 99MB, eighty thousand English words, totally real human voice. But there are no pronunciation of phrases
, such as "put out", "knock at", "lay over" etc. I have found a very helpful website————Forvo. You could submit the words or phrases which you want to know their pronunciation on this website. The native language speakers could see your applications and read them for you, then you could download each words' MP3, add them to your own Anki audio library————"XXX.media" ———— your own electronic document. Then when you open a phrase card of Anki, you could hear its pronunciation which is came from a native speaker.
It's said that Forvo includes three hundred kinds of language, 1,444,506 pronunciations, 1,350,535 words. I have downloaded about thirty English word's pronunciations. Some of them were came from the British, and some of them were came from Americans, Canadians and a word "dangerously" was came from a French girl. Sometimes, your words would be read in two minutes by a online netizen. Only two defects: 1. A word's MP3 is about 30 to 40 KB, is bigger than a word in Words-Audio Library, it's only 2 to 3 KB. It would occupy your smartphone memory. 2.Some words' pronunciation have a little noise. Wishing "Forvo" could help you.
