What’s new
Version 2.0.0 · Updated September 4, 2026
• New: type any syllable and hear all six tones — si1 to si6, with real recordings. • Pronunciation rules are now their own section: the tone digit, j sounds like English y, long aa vs short a. Every example is spoken. • Example words show the meaning in your language, and no longer print the same word twice in two scripts. • Single letters can now be practised in uppercase — tap A/a in the writing toolbar. • Quiz titles now say Jyutping instead of Pinyin, and the home-screen icon reads Jyutping.
