Abstract

The development of technology has made it considerably easier for people to meet a number of needs. Without technology, it is no longer possible to run certain applications. Nowadays, in many countries, the process of speaking English poses some problems in terms of different situations, such as allocating time for people. In this study, a game-based application was developed to help a person anywhere in the world pronounce English better. The application was implemented in C # programming language. The Speech.dll library was used to introduce voice commands to the system and to perform other necessary operations. Voice commands can be sent by the user via the wireless headset from anywhere in the shooting area. There is no need to wait at the computer while using the application because the developed application gives voice feedback to the user that it is right or wrong after the voice recognition process. In this application letter, word or sentence exercises can be done. The program aims to improve the level of pronunciation of people who want to improve their English speaking skills.
