Mandarin Tone Pair Trainer

Hear a syllable and guess its tone — train your ear, free.

Quick answer

How do I learn to hear Mandarin tones?

Train your ear with minimal pairs: hear the same syllable said with each of the four tones and guess which one you heard. Repeated listening builds tone perception faster than reading pinyin alone. Shadola's free tone trainer plays syllables aloud and scores your guesses, then lets you shadow full sentences with tone feedback.

Listen and pick the tone you hear (syllable ma).
