8 target sentences, played by your browser and — where the browser supports it — transcribed by your browser, so you can see which words you dropped. No account, no upload, no trial. Each sentence carries the drop rates actually measured on it across 383 to 1,026 scored attempts.
Play it once, then repeat it from memory. Nothing is uploaded: the sentence is spoken by your browser and, where the browser supports it, transcribed by your browser.
If JavaScript is off, or your browser has no speech APIs, every sentence and its measured drop rates are written out in full below.
The percentage after each word is the share of scored attempts in which that word did not appear in the learner's repetition. Together these 8 sentences account for 4,595 of the 13,040 attempts in the dataset.

Full breakdown for this sentence →13,040 scored Listen and Repeat responses across 21 target sentences, drawn from a 5,000-session sample since 2026-01-01, with a minimum of 30 scored attempts before a sentence is reported at all. The unit is one completed, scored response to one target sentence, not one learner — the same person may appear several times.
The aggregation is read-only and sentence-level. No transcript, recording, user identifier or individual attempt is published, and none is stored in the website dataset. Scores behind these aggregates are LingoLeap AI scores, not official ETS results.
The full study, including how difficulty and word count interact, is at our Listen and Repeat research page.
Listen and Repeat is scored on three things: how much of the sentence you reproduced, how intelligible it was, and how stable your delivery was. A browser can check the first. It cannot judge the other two — your browser's recogniser silently normalises pronunciation, and it reports no timing you could turn into a fluency measure.
So treat a high percentage here as evidence that your recall is working, not that your pronunciation is. What a real score contains, field by field, is documented in the TOEFL 2026 speaking feedback specification.
The other 2026 task with a single correct answer is also free and ungated here: Build a Sentence practice.
Intelligibility and delivery stability need real pronunciation scoring, with per-word guidance on the sounds that cost you marks.
