Kantonese is a browser-based Cantonese pronunciation practice tool with short sentences, a six-tone ladder and a recording button.
Users choose an easy or medium sentence, record in the browser and compare what the system hears with the target Jyutping. Correct and incorrect syllables point to an initial, final or tone that needs another attempt; model and learner recordings sit side by side. A searchable sentence set makes it possible to return to one troublesome item rather than treating the activity as a one-time quiz.

Accuracy limits
The report documents a publicly deployed web application with a sentence dataset of fewer than 80 items. It notes that background noise, speaking speed and the current ASR model can affect feedback accuracy.
