I've recently started adding German words into Supermemo, with the answer being the gender and the plural form. This is helping my grammar but damaging my pronounciation...
If anybody knows somewhere where I could find recordings of words by natives (I'm not so keen on the computer generated voices) then it would be immense! =P (first word that came into my head lol) Learning German's done funny things to my English, I always want to spell anything with an sh with a c in the middle and I add words sometimes... "He looks wierd aus" One day I might be able to speak one language =D 1 person has voted this message useful | |

You can sentence mine the FSI texts and use the audio for the pronunciation. I use Audacity to cut the dialogues of every unit and add it to the sentence.

Try Wiktionary, the files shold be spoken by human native speakers. It isn't that much but maybe can get you started - and you can request words. Edited by Bao on 15 June 2009 at 7:45pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Awesome, I just looked at the source for some of the words and I found this http://swac-collections.org/?lang=deu
It has loads of languages, the collections being bigger for other languages. The German collection has 2000 words at the moment beaten by the Czech by a 1000 words! 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I just found that as well! And I'm itching to contribute, but I don't know what exactly to record.

I use www.dict.cc,it's an English-German,German-English dictionary with example recordings. You have to be careful if you only want to hear recordings by natives,sometimes they're also made by German learners. Edited by E on 16 June 2009 at 4:15pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Bao, if you want to contribute....
I'm about to start making myself a list with all the nouns from Assimil, if I tell you which words aren't there and you added them then it would be amazing! Only if you're up for it of course... 1 person has voted this message useful | |

You might also try
http://dict.leo.org/ and http://www.goethe-verlag.com/book2/INDEX.HTM Although it isn't free and sold in Germany for learning English, the "Langenscheidt Vokabeltrainer Englisch" includes the German pronunciation as well, so you should be able to use it equally well for learning German. Using it could help you save a lot of time you would otherwise spend associating mp3s and vocabulary entries. You can read more about it and find a free demo version of it at http://vokabeln.de/ Edited by AvidLearner on 16 June 2009 at 5:30pm 1 person has voted this message useful |
