Listen to real audio. Type the sentence. Words you miss come back later.
Dictation is a classic language-drill technique. You listen to a sentence, then type exactly what you heard. Every gap you can't fill points to something specific: a sound you missed, a word you don't know, or a grammar pattern that slipped past.
Missed words return on a schedule. FSRS, same engine as Anki.
IELTS, TOEFL, lectures, podcasts. No synthetic voices.
After every submission, see which words you got right.
Dictation is listening to spoken English and typing exactly what you hear. It trains your ear, spelling, grammar, and vocabulary in one drill — and Edictatio makes it free, with FSRS spaced repetition for words you miss.
Yes. Free, no ads, no upsell. The full dictation library, FSRS reviews, streaks, and leaderboards are all included.
Dictation works best from A2 / B1 upward. If you understand 60–80% of an audio on first listen, you're in the right zone for dictation.
Passive listening builds familiarity. Dictation gives you measurable, per-word feedback on what you actually heard. Most learners need both, but dictation closes specific gaps faster.
FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler) is the modern memory algorithm Anki adopted. In Edictatio, words you miss in a dictation session come back on a personalized schedule until they stick.
No — you can try dictation as a guest. An account is only needed to save progress, streaks, and FSRS reviews across devices.
