Abstract
A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor includes code to cause the processor to receive acoustic data representing an utterance spoken by a language learner in a non-native language in response to prompting the language learner to recite a word in the non-native language and receive a pronunciation lexicon of the word in the non-native language. The pronunciation lexicon includes at least one alternative pronunciation of the word based on a pronunciation lexicon of a native language of the language learner. The code causes the processor to generate an acoustic model of the at least one alternative pronunciation in the non-native language and identify a mispronunciation of the word in the utterance based on a comparison of the acoustic data with the acoustic model. The code causes the processor to send feedback related to the mispronunciation of the word to the language learner.
