Speak N Spell was developed to help you practice your spelling abilities.

When you first launch Speak N Spell, the default dictionary of over 48,000 words is used. You can open the Word Maintenance window from the menu bar and revise this dictionary (add or delete words), use your own set of words (clear the table and add words), or load a plain text file with words. You can also save the word list to a plain text file. Make such a file one word per line and save the file with a “.txt” suffix.

The four levels of difficulty use different size words:

* a. Easy - Three letter words
* b. Medium - Four to six letter words
* c. Hard - Seven to ten letter words
* d. Hardest - More than ten letter words

You may think the harmonica is SO 1920 but the numbers of harmonicas produced are staggering, reaching into the millions upon millions each year. So, you gotta figure that it’s fairly popular. Admit it, it’s a singularly unique, mobile, cool sounding (if you can play it correctly) instrument that fits easily into your pocket. Just remember all the of the Stevie Wonder harmonica solos because a harmonica CAN sound incredible, plus you can kill with some well-played blues, if you’re into that. But also, the folksie musicians like Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan also worked wonders with their version of the “mouth harp.” This free harmonica player for Mac will give you an idea of the sounds of a diatonic harmonica and just generally introduce you to the wonderful world of Harmonica. After you experiment with this free application, maybe you’ll try to dig out and dust off the harmonica that’s been in your attic for years and years.
