Learn English with Google: New Speaking Practice feature
Google has begun testing a new feature called Speaking Practice, which is designed to help users improve their English speaking skills. This innovation is already available to residents of Argentina, Colombia, India, Indonesia, Mexico, and Venezuela who have joined Google's search labs.
Here's What We Know
The Search Labs platform provides early access to Google's search innovations before they are officially released to the general public. "Speaking Practice uses artificial intelligence to provide exercises that help improve speaking skills. These exercises are aimed at helping users use new words and phrases in everyday communication.
One of the main differences between Speaking Practice and other language learning apps is that it prompts users to answer open-ended questions to encourage more natural conversations. The feature is currently in testing, and Google has not yet announced an official release date or possible expansion to other markets.
Initially, users who have tried the new option have shared positive feedback and noted that it helps them understand and use English in real-life conversations.
