Introduction
This clinically-validated word test will show you which speech sounds you are able to hear. There are 50 words on the test. After listening to each word, try to respond by typing what you heard. Note that:
- Some of the words may be nonsense words. Try to write exactly what you hear.
- Spelling is not very important. The test can tell whether what you wrote “sounds like” the word which was played.
Please perform this sound check before you start

You will score better if you guess anything, even a nonsense word.
Please re-type with standard English alphabetic characters only.
You should guess; only use the “did not hear” button if you really have no idea.
If the “play” button didn’t make any noise at all, please check that your speakers or headphones are
switched on and plugged in, and that your computer’s volume dial is set to a reasonable volume (and not muted).
