Why test your Korean intonation and stress?

Melody carries meaning

The same words can be a statement, a question or a correction depending on how your voice moves. Getting the sounds right is not enough if the melody says something else.

Measured from your voice

Your pitch is tracked through each sentence and drawn as a line, so you can see whether you rose or fell instead of guessing.

Judged by the rules of the language

Every language has its own stress and rhythm system. The test checks you against how Korean works, not against the patterns of another language.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Korean intonation test work?

You read five sentences in one recording. The pitch of your voice is tracked through each sentence and the movement at the end is measured in semitones. An AI phonetics coach then listens for stress, rhythm and emphasis. Measured pitch and the listening pass are combined into four subscores.

What is the difference between intonation and stress?

Intonation is the melody of a whole sentence, such as rising at the end of a yes/no question. Stress is the extra weight on one syllable in a word or one word in a sentence. Both change how natural and how clear you sound.

Why does my question sound like a statement?

Usually because the pitch falls or stays flat at the end where it should rise, or rises on the wrong word. The sentence-by-sentence result shows which way your voice moved and which way it needed to move.

Do I need a quiet room?

A quiet room helps. Pitch tracking needs a clear voice signal, so background noise or music can hide the movement of your voice.

Is this test free?

Yes. It is free to use without an account, with a daily limit on the number of tests.
