Description

Our award winning Pinyin Chart is back!
Join over 500,000 students and perfect your Chinese pronunciation with the most popular Pinyin Chart on the app store!
Top 50 World Excellence App Competition at Global Mobile Internet Conference (GMIC).

After a year of work from our development team, we're proud to release the new version of Pinyin Chart! Great new features include all possible combinations of sounds and tones in the Chinese language, as well as many themes to excite your learning. Clearly spoken by native speakers, to demonstrate the different tones, this app is essential to all Chinese learners.

You will also find the most comprehensive guide to teach you pronunciation of Mandarin Chinese. Over 60 pages are devoted exclusively to help students of any level to achieve an authentic accent and accurate tones, including exercises, detailed descriptions, and a variety of methods to ensure the concepts are clearly conveyed. Designed by a professional teacher from the United States, this is a unique approach to learning an accent, at the heart of which is the belief that new information is best learned and recalled when it is associated with older, familiar information. Using instances in spoken English that closely resemble target sounds in Chinese (they do exist!), a series of simple steps is provided to go from one language to the other. Even the tones are made simple and clear through this approach. Be aware that this is not a comprehensive text on Mandarin. There is no grammar or vocabulary, no cultural backgrounds or dialog. Just pronunciation. This guide is suitable for any level of proficiency, and will benefit anyone looking to sound more like a native speaker.

Excellent App!

This app has all the final and vowel combinations. It is very simple to use, just touch the sound you want to hear and it brings up all the tones, including the neutral tone, you then click on play all or just the sound you want. I particularly like the repeat function (by touching it repeatedly) so I can hear the sound over and over and over as many times as I want to hear it. The pronunciation sounds are very clear which is beneficial to me because I have difficulty with the 'ca' and 'u' and some of the 'z' sounds. I got this for my iPod Touch which makes practicing very convenient! I highly recommend this app and wish I'd had it over a year ago when I began learning Mandarin! Good job!

Good for what it is

I've been studying Chinese for 7 years (off and on), have many hardcopy books, and have many iPhone apps. However, I always have use of more native speaking. For what this app claims to be, just a listing of all the pinyin sounds, it does a great job and is very useful, even for English speakers who have been studying Chinese for quite some time. As you know (if you've studied Chinese for very long and have listened to many Chinese people talk), native Chinese speakers vary their speech a great deal depending on where they came from in China, and it's useful to hear many different native speakers when learning Chinese. This simple app is good for basic pinyin sounds. The only thing I don't like is the ads.
UPDATE: If you don't buy the "pro" version (not sure what you get for that), the nag screen freezes up the application and it's unusable. I deleted this app.

Great app for Chinese pronunciation!

If you are learning Chinese, this app is a MUST HAVE! Having worked with Chinese people (who ALWAYS spoke in their native language) I could never catch on to anything they were saying. Everything they said always sound the same to me. With this app you can clearly understand the speaker. It is so easy for me to not only understand the pronunciations, but distinguish tiny difference between similar ones. Great if you're just starting out or have been learning for a while. Even if you know the language fluently, this app is perfect for getting the pronunciations just right! Love it!
