# Ankira: German Dictation Trainer

A mobile-first dictation trainer. Enter the words you want to practice, get a
short German dictation read aloud, write it by hand, then photograph your page
to see a word-level diff against the original.

Original plan included importing well-remembered words from Anki cards for practice, thus ANKIra.
