Hi, @mhenretty

Because of @fred_trotter 's comment, I created some health-related sentences. https://pastebin.com/6Y797eNp. Let me know if you need more contributions.

Hi! Today I explored some interesting cases in terms of pronunciation. I believe these: https://pastebin.com/bTKWpHiU
can help cover a few potential bugs of machine understanding.

Hi, @tlcoles! My name is Janet, and I am a volunteer for Project Common Voice. Thank you so much for your contribution. I’d like to let you know that your sentences have been added. Also, I think it would be awesome to have sentence that touch on women’s health, but that’s just my two cents. :slight_smile: Cheers!

I got 9.8 MB more of CC0 conversation sentences but can anyone help me filter them to remove the incorrect ones and verify them?

@James_Fortune cool, that’s a substantial amount of utterances! Since most of them are very technical, I’ve filtered the worst offenders automatically:

http://speech.tools/cc0-75k-conversations.filtered

But that’s still 75k sentences, a lot more than the the 7k in the common voice v1 release. Not a bad idea to exclude some more utterances manually, I guess, but it’s a start.

@bmilde I archived your link with the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20180116003608/http://speech.tools/cc0-75k-conversations.filtered

I’ll see if I can get an other substantial amount of utterances for Common Voice.
