A free Chrome extension that plays video clips of native speakers pronouncing selected English words without sending readers to another tab.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

Pronouncey is designed to keep pronunciation practice inside the article being read: a selected word opens an in-page player after a context-menu command. The page says clips come from native speakers in conversations, talks, and interviews rather than synthetic speech. Its accent menu lists seven varieties of English, and its History tab is described as storing previously checked words locally in the browser.
