The subject invention concerns a system for phonological training a sound reception device (1), an operating device (5) for controlling the system, interpreting and processing devices (2), and presentation device (3). The presentation device (3) includes a display screen divided into a plurality of windows (11-17) for simultaneous presentation of a graphic reproduction of the desired sound as well as of the sound produced by the user and received by the sound reception device (1), and of an animated reproduction of speech device (1), and of an animated reproduction of speech organs. The system is adapted to reproduce the sound by fields(s) (41, 42, 51, 52), the longitudinal extension of the field(s) in one direction reflecting the time during which the sound is produced and the graphic display content within each field, such as colours, shading or the like, of the fields denoting the place of formation of the sound in the oral cavity.
A device for phonological training, comprising sound reception means, operating means for controlling the device, interpreting and processing means, and presentation means comprising a display screen divided into a plurality of windows for simultaneous presentation of a graphic reproduction of the desired sound as well as of the sound produced by the user and received by the sound reception means, and of an animated reproduction of speech organs, characterized in that the device is adapted to reproduce the sound by means of field(s), the longitudinal extension of said field(s) in one direction reflecting the time during which the sound is produced and graphic display content within each field denoting the place of formation of the sound in an oral cavity of a user.
