Forvo Pronunciation

Forvo searches pronunciations recorded by speakers and lets you compare accents or contribute recordings.

Our take

Consider it if you want to hear a word in several accents rather than rely on one synthetic voice.

Search history and followed speakers help you find examples again.

Keep in mind: The recordings are community contributions; coverage and examples vary by language and word.

Limitations & considerations

  • The recordings are community contributions; coverage and examples vary by language and word.

Privacy & permissions

Contributing a pronunciation uses the microphone and sends a recording to the service.
