## About the Dataset
### 434 hours

This audio dataset contains 434 hours recorded by speakers of French, Arabic, Spanish, and other languages:
- **74.73 hours of English recorded by native French speakers**
- **50 hours recorded by native Arabic speakers**
- **40 hours recorded by native Spanish speakers**
- **269.8 hours recorded by speakers of other languages**

The speakers are presented with a prompt (script) and asked to read it out loud and record. Our clients will receive an audio recording, the prompt and information about the speaker. The audio is recorded on-device, typically in 16kHz 16 bit. We also provide information on which device each record was recorded.

The dataset is covered by [Defined.ai's standard license agreement](https://www.defined.ai/dataset/data-license-agreement). The license agreement is perpetual and allows for the commercialization of all models built on the data.
