This Demo contains some basic types of the assignments used
in the Introductory Phonetic Course. The sample exercises are taken from different lessons of the course. When trying the Demo,
you can:
get acquainted with graphic representation of the course;
check whether you are able to read Cyrillic and hear sound
files without any distortions (that is to ensure correct
performance of the paid service on your PC and avoid any
troubles in future);
have an idea of the language material of the course,
which ranges from separate sounds to mini-texts.
So, let's start!
