Google Translate May Be Building a Pronunciation Coach

Hidden code in Google Translate's Android app reveals a "Practice" mode in development that would let users record themselves saying translated phrases and receive pronunciation scores with corrective feedback. This would bridge a key gap by helping users not just know what to say, but whether they're saying it clearly enough to be understood. The tool appears to offer phonetic guidance and encourages users to retry until their pronunciation improves, moving Translate closer to guided speaking practice rather than simple translation.
