How to play

You hear one of two near-identical Spanish words (for example pero and perro).
Tap the word you think you heard.
The right word turns green and both meanings are shown; a wrong tap shows the correct one.
Answer ten per round — replay the audio as often as you like.

Pero (but) has a single tapped r; perro (dog) has a rolled double r. The pairs here also include stress contrasts like papa (potato) and papá (dad).

The r/rr and stress contrasts change meaning in Spanish, so training your ear to hear them helps both your listening and your pronunciation.
