Everything on PronunciationHub, organized by topic.
You're standing somewhere new — a market, a restaurant, a train platform — and you need a word. Not a grammar lesson. Just the word, said right, so the person in front of you understands. That's what this site is for.
PronunciationHub covers the words and phrases that actually come up: food you want to order, cities you're trying to reach, names you don't want to mangle, everyday expressions that sound completely different from how they're spelled. Every topic has its own page with audio, phonetic guides, and enough context to know when to use what you've learned.
This page is the full map. Browse by category — food and drink, travel, greetings, place names, and more — or search for something specific. If you're not sure where to start, pick the topic closest to why you're here.
Every entry is cross-checked: audio recorded by native speakers, translations verified against real usage, not just dictionary definitions.

Frequently asked
where do I start if I'm a complete beginner
Pick one topic that matches something you'll actually need soon — ordering food, saying hello, asking for directions. Start there, get comfortable, then branch out. Trying to learn everything at once is how nothing sticks.
how is PronunciationHub different from just looking it up on Google Translate
Google Translate gives you a spelling and a robotic audio clip. We give you phonetic breakdowns, notes on regional variation, and context for when a word is used formally versus casually. That difference matters the moment you're in a real conversation.
are the pronunciations based on one accent or dialect
We note regional differences where they matter — a word pronounced one way in Madrid sounds different in Mexico City, and we say so. The goal is to prepare you for real speakers, not a single textbook standard.
can I use this site to prepare for a specific trip
Yes, and that's honestly the best way to use it. Find the topics relevant to where you're going — local food names, city and neighborhood pronunciations, transport phrases — and work through those. Focused preparation beats a general overview every time.
