Where did this app come from?
Despite having lived in America for years,  there are still times when people say 'Sorry, can you repeat that'. Enough is enough, I said, and decided to speak English fluently and clearly.
Then I tried the applications I could find, but I couldn't see anything that worked for me. ‘Listen to me, then repeat’ kind of apps didn't work as I have already heard it maybe a thousand times, but when it comes to speaking, it fails.
  The artificial intelligence powered phones can speak clearly, but I, an organically intelligent adult, cannot speak likewise. I said, there is something wrong here, I should be able to speak by following how artificial intelligence does it. So I gathered a team of artificial intelligence experts with PhDs and made an app that shows people how artificial intelligence reads. We started this initiative so that adults can learn how to speak English without being treated like children, with the artificial intelligence we call Arya.

Why is it difficult to speak English?
Speaking English clearly depends on two key points.
1 - English is not read as it is written. letters in the text are not necessarily read literally, but you need to know the sounds in each word to pronounce them.
2 - Sounds in English also have stress. There are three stress levels besides the normal sounds. These:
- Primary Stress, the situation in which the voice is emphasized with high stress.
- Secondary Stress, the situation in which the voice is emphasized with the middle stress.
- Unstressed, the situation where the voice is very low and slurred.
In addition to languages ​​that can be read as written or spoken with monotony, English is a difficult language to speak, especially without understanding the phonemes and stresses.

How does Arya teach? What is the difference?
While the human ear can easily distinguish sounds and accents at a young age, such as before the age of 14, it becomes difficult to hear these differences in adults over time. For this reason, educational methods such as 'Listen to me and repeat', which are useful for children, do not show much success in adults.
Arya artificial intelligence application, communicates English pronunciation:
by using the language you already know how to pronounce and
by visualizing the highlights
It allows you to understand the details that you do not notice while hearing. It makes it possible for adults to speak fluent English quickly too.

How does Arya know all this?
Of course we can't tell everything here, it's a trade secret :)
The logic is that the artificial intelligence can speak English clearly. Here, Arya intervenes and shows you the sounds and accents that artificial intelligence makes while speaking, allowing us to understand the sounds and accents by seeing as well as hearing them.
