Lost for words? Not any more...


22 April 2008 0:00 GMT / By Ian Hughes

Nothing worse than coming across a word you're not sure about, looking it up, learning it, then casually throwing into polite conversation only for some smartarse pedantic so-and-so to correct your pronunciation.

Don't you just hate that?

Forvo can help.

With an ever-increasing vocabulary to search through, you can look for a word and then hear how it's supposed to sound. Especially useful for those pesky foreign words - you get to hear your word read out by a native speaker.

Take that pedants.
