Hi,

I am searching for speech samples (spontaneaous or read speech, 1 min of speech is great !) from these different languages (at least 1 male and 1 female). Could anyone provide me with these data?

Of course, I will cite you as contributors in the aknowledgment section of the forthcoming paper :)

My study intends to quantify vocal dimorphism in several languages and investigate some cultural evolutionary hypothesis to explain cross language/culture differences. Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
