About this app

Learn Turkish: Shadow & Dictate is a practical language learning app designed for learners who want to improve their Turkish listening, speaking, and pronunciation skills in a natural and effective way.

All audio recordings are spoken by native Turkish speakers.
No AI-generated voices are used in the voice recordings.

This app focuses on two proven language learning techniques: shadowing and dictation, which are widely used by language learners and professionals to develop real-world comprehension and speaking ability.

What is Shadowing?

Shadowing is a method where you listen to a native speaker and repeat the speech aloud at the same time or immediately after hearing it.
This technique helps you:

Improve pronunciation and intonation

Develop natural speaking rhythm

Get used to real spoken Turkish

Build speaking confidence

Shadowing trains your brain to process Turkish sounds, stress patterns, and sentence flow in real time, making your speech more natural over time.

What is Dictation?

Dictation is a listening-based exercise where you carefully listen to spoken language and write down what you hear.
Dictation helps you:

Improve listening comprehension

Recognize word boundaries and sentence structure

Strengthen spelling and grammar awareness

Notice details you might miss while listening casually

By combining dictation with shadowing, learners can improve both active and passive language skills.

Learning Content

The app includes a variety of learning materials such as:

Short sentences for focused practice

Dialogues based on everyday situations

Listening and speaking exercises

Grammar explanations presented in a clear way

Vocabulary cards to support word learning

The content is suitable for intermediate-level learners who already have basic knowledge of Turkish and want to move toward more natural understanding and usage.


While AI tools may have been used during text preparation, the final audio you hear is recorded by real people whose native language is Turkish. This ensures authentic pronunciation, natural rhythm, and real spoken Turkish.

Microphone Usage

The microphone is used for speaking, shadowing, and dictation exercises.
An internet connection is required for microphone-related features.

Audio input is used only to support learning activities within the app and is not stored or shared.

Who Is This App For?

Learners who want to improve Turkish listening and speaking

Self-learners looking for practical exercises

Users who prefer natural, real-life Turkish

Anyone learning Turkish in a non-academic, everyday context

This app is not designed as a game or a social platform. It is a focused learning tool for individual practice.
