Egg fried rice is a simple dish that anyone can make. I think it was one of the first things I ever cooked for myself in the kitchen and it can be given your own unique twist by adding your own favorite ingredients.

The short dictation describes making a basic form of the dish and can be followed in a just a few minutes, once you've got some cooked rice.

First, cook the rice. When the rice is cooked, add some oil to a wok and place on a high heat. Add the rice to the oil and let the rice brown. Mix the eggs and pour the egg mixture into the wok. Stir the egg and rice until the egg is set. Add some soy sauce. Pour the mixture onto a plate and enjoy!

How to use the Ringo Lingo Multi-Player

Fresher mode
We know that trying to follow a dictation with new words can be a difficult and frustrating experience, which is why we created Fresher mode. On the Standard player, when activated, the complete text of the dictation is displayed below the player, so you can see the words as you listen. On the Multi-Player, only the words for the current clip are displayed.

Lexicon
Some dictations may be at a level that is higher than you're currently at. In case you want to try a harder dictation, each exercise includes a lexicon. This is a collection of words that are used in a dictation. To turn this on, click the Lexicon switch. You will 7 buttons labelled from Starter to Expert. If you click a button, the Lexicon will display all the words that are classed as above the selected level. For example, when Expert is selected, you will see words that do not appear in the core list of English words. If you click starter, any words that do not appear in the top 100 core words will be displayed.
Back to Multi-Player
This means you can listen to dictations that use words you don't know yet. If you can identify these words by the way they are spelt, you can just click on a word to add it to your text. After you submit your text, you will see the correct and you can then use the dictionary feature to learn about any new words.

You can now click on a hint and the player will skip to and play the audio clip that the error is within.
