Ever imagined how to pronounce a word correctly like a native? For example how the word for home in Sinhala language be pronounced in English properly? Is it "Gedara" or "Gethara"? Or something in between "da" and "tha" sounds? Well… now we have the chance to make the correct pronunciation available for non-Sinhala speaking community by recording them via Forvo’s web database.
Forvo’s goal is to collect proper pronunciations of every word in every language on the plant. Sounds bit dotty yeah…? But I think it’s a matter of time. I have already included some words in Sinhalese to the database and will contribute in the future as well.
So if you need to contribute for your language or like to learn how to pronounce a word in another language like French, Spanish or Japanese (as of now 195 languages are supported) properly check this out.
