Speak N Spell was developed to help you practice your spelling abilities. Compatible: Macintosh and Windows XP.
Speak N Spell was designed to help you practice your spelling abilities.When you first launch Speak N Spell, the default word set of over 47,000 words is used. You can open the Word Maintenance window from the menu bar and revise this dictionary (add or delete words), use your own set of words (clear the table and add words), or load a plain text file with words.
The five levels of difficulty are:
* a. Easy - Uses only words with three letters
* b. Medium - Uses words with four to six letters
* c. Hard - Uses words with seven to ten letters
* d. Hardest - Uses words with more than ten letters
* d. Mixed - Uses all dictionary words
Score is not kept. If you don't understand the word, you can ask to see the word or just ignore that word and ask for another word.
It is suggested that the System Preferences/Speech/Text to Speech Speaking Rate be set for Slow. Experiment with different voices. Vicki is an good Speaking Voice but you can try the others. The difficulty level and the Dictionary Word set are saved between sessions.
