Learning Phone Number Recognition

Postby FeoGringo » Tue Jul 05, 2022 11:11 pm

I remember a website was posted for drilling/practicing numbers in a foreign language (I forget the site). But does anyone know of anything that helps with phone number audio recognition. I need this skill for my job and writing down numbers from voicemails. Any advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I use an app that drills numbers in many languages, including specifically phone numbers.

OMG best thing ever! And free too!!

Is there an equivalent for Android? I want to sideload something like that into my Kindle fire. It’s so non-threatening!!

OT: The Fire is my ultra-selective edutainmental environment as it’s my (semi-*)internet-sequestered device. But I had to sideload the Play store because I NEED that Kanji app, the one that can incorporate the Kodansha Kanji readers (at a price, but I’m willing to pay for such an excellent app). The iOS version never got fully enabled, and the Kindle is my only Android device.

Three thumbs up for this site. It's perfect.

With easy learner choices for number size, big numbers, instant feedback, no app to install and touch-typing practice, I'm going to need more thumbs to do a proper review.

All thumbs up. :ugeek:
