Amazing. Just add some more modules, a glossary and a final comment on where should we not accept certain works due to deviations. Also the rules for rhyming are not very clear, specially with pronouns.

Brilliant app. Cleared most of my confusions. The step by step breakup really makes it easy to understand. And mock tests with answers are also awesome . Thanks Team for building this.

i am really enjoying this app. it is so much more than just a rhyming machine (like so many of the other apps). Thanks for providing an app that actually teaches meter and uses classical examples.

Brilliant once you understand how it works. A small glossary for abbreviations would help to figure out the comments, as there is no indication whatsoever; I finally figured out it refers to etymology, OE is Old English, OF Old French, L Latin, ME Medieval English - well I hope it's correct! It would be useful to be told on the first unit as it helps a lot to understand how it works. That cleared, the explanations are fantastic as you can find some logic in it all.

very good alternative resource of information and the app is easy to use.

This app is terrible. Example: according to this garbage app 'beekeeper' and 'beefeater' each have only two syllables. That is obviously incorrect.
