Weekly #DevLog / September 19

Hi all & happy Friday! This week, we bring you a major update for Android:

- Chinese Tone Training is out in beta!

If you've ever felt like your lack of "tone perception" is holding you back, give Tone Training a try! It has:

- five units of back-to-back listening exercises (some basic, some pretty tricky!);
- pronunciation assessment that breaks your recordings down to tones, initials, and finals to let you know exactly what area(s) you need to work on;
- clear explanations of pronunciation rules, including tone changes (tone sandhi);
- a big test at the end;
- and cute animated deer! 🦌

We recommend you start at the beginning (Tone Basics) and work your way down without skipping anything. Please let us know your thoughts: what you like, what exercises you find most useful, and what can be improved!

Remember that you can always reach us by email at blog@lingodeer.com and blog@lingodeer.com, via the Contact Us form in the app, on Discord, or on our official subreddit r/lingodeer :)

Happy learning!
