Honest scoring
Transcript recognition, not accent certification.
What this measures: how closely your browser’s Korean recognition transcript matches each target. It does not measure tongue position, acoustic phonemes, native-likeness, or clinical speech quality. Chamelingo does not store an audio recording from this page.

How to use the result
1
Retake before diagnosing
One recognition miss can be noise. Repeat under similar conditions before treating it as a pattern.
2
Drill the weakest bucket
Use the result link to isolate the contrast, batchim, or connected-speech pattern that was least consistent.
3
Return to sentences
After isolated practice, say the full prompt again. Clear pronunciation has to survive normal connected speech.
Pronunciation self-test FAQ
Is this a real Korean pronunciation score?
It is a real recognition-based practice score: the tool compares the transcript returned by browser Korean speech recognition with the authored target. It is not a phoneme, accent, clinical, or native-likeness score.
Does Chamelingo upload or store my microphone recording?
This self-test does not upload or retain an audio file in Chamelingo. Speech recognition is provided by your browser, and browser vendors can implement that recognition differently.
Why can my score change even when I say the same thing?
Background noise, microphone quality, speaking pace, connected speech, and differences in the browser recognition engine can all change the transcript. Compare repeated sessions under similar conditions.
What should I do with a weak category?
Open the recommended drill, isolate that sound or pattern, listen and repeat several examples, then return to the full phrase. Persistent low recognition is a practice signal, not a diagnosis.
