What is dictation?

Dictation is a classic language-drill technique. You listen to a sentence, then type exactly what you heard. Every gap you can't fill points to something specific: a sound you missed, a word you don't know, or a grammar pattern that slipped past.

Frequently asked questions

What is dictation?+

Dictation is listening to spoken English and typing exactly what you hear. It trains your ear, spelling, grammar, and vocabulary in one drill — and Edictatio makes it free, with FSRS spaced repetition for words you miss.

Is Edictatio really free?+

Yes. Free, no ads, no upsell. The full dictation library, FSRS reviews, streaks, and leaderboards are all included.

What level of English do I need?+

Dictation works best from A2 / B1 upward. If you understand 60–80% of an audio on first listen, you're in the right zone for dictation.

How is this different from podcasts or watching English shows?+

Passive listening builds familiarity. Dictation gives you measurable, per-word feedback on what you actually heard. Most learners need both, but dictation closes specific gaps faster.

What is FSRS?+

FSRS (Free Spaced Repetition Scheduler) is the modern memory algorithm Anki adopted. In Edictatio, words you miss in a dictation session come back on a personalized schedule until they stick.

Do I need to sign up?+

No — you can try dictation as a guest. An account is only needed to save progress, streaks, and FSRS reviews across devices.
