I am using skritter to learn chinese charachters and so far like it pretty well. My wife is not learning charachters but focusing on pinyin instead as she just needs to build the spoken language a bit quicker. I was wondering if there was a learning mode where it would focus on pinyin instead of charachters?

Thanks

If you're not wanting characters at all, perhaps you can use something like anki ( http://ichi2.net/anki/ ) for it?

I use Anki with the pinyin and Mandarin toolkits for pinyin practice. It works pretty well.

I'm working on the active pinyin practice now, actually. But it will still be based on reading characters, so another tool will make more sense. Eventually we might do something like definition -> pinyin, but we have no immediate plans.
