Edinburgh University Speech Timing Archive and Corpus of English. (EUSTACE)

Institution: University of Edinburgh
Corpus Material: speech
Summary: From the web site: These sentences, spoken by six speakers of British English, were designed to examine a number of durational effects in speech and are controlled for length and phonetic content. Subconstituents of key words in each sentence have been identified by labels in xlabel (ESPS) format and notes have been made about the prosodic realisation of the sentences. It is hoped that these recordings will be useful for phonetics researchers and speech technologists working on synthesis and recognition.
