Kanembu, Fulfulde, Massa and Tedaga (Toubou) on request: we open a language once we have recruited speakers and a reviewer for it.
How a commission works
- You write to us with the language, data type, volume and intended use.
- We reply with a written quote: price, delivery date, delivery format and licence terms.
- You pay a deposit when you accept the quote. Collection starts.
- Collectors record, translate or photograph. A reviewer accepts or rejects each item. Rejected items are not delivered and not charged.
- We deliver the accepted items with their metadata, and you pay the balance.
Included with every item
- Consent from the speaker, given in the collection app before any recording.
- Metadata: language code, speaker gender and age range, recording setting, topic, date.
- For speech: the French prompt the speaker translated aloud. Mono 16 kHz audio. With transcribed speech, also the verbatim text in the target language; clips whose transcription failed review are not counted in a transcribed hour.
- A review by our team before delivery.
Not covered by this card
- Ready-made datasets. None exist yet; this card is for collection made to order.
- Transcription of recordings by someone other than the speaker, or of long conversations. Ask us if you need it.
- The Bible parallel corpus. The Alliance Biblique du Tchad has agreed in principle; it will be offered once the written licence is signed.
