Please help us to localise this by joining Pontoon open_book Mozilla Voice Community Playbook: The source of truth for setting up and maintain self-sustainable communities. Hello everyone, I would like to open this topic to summarize some of the most asked question we are getting: How do I get my language in Common Voice. There are three steps to have your language ready: …

Yes, thanks Carlos. The step 3, the one I am concerned about, is… still blocked? How did the other languages in use managed? are there alternatives?

Hi, We are still finishing the sentence collection tool: [image] Sentence collection tool development topic Common Voice Continuing the discussion from We want your feedback: Improving the sentence collection: Hi all, This topic is aimed just to developers who would like to help (react and kinto skills required) Source code Live site What do we need? Fork the project and test that you can run the environment locally following the instructions. Is everything working as expected? If not, submit a new issue. Review the pending issues on the next milestone. Create a new PR to fix any of the existing issues in t… Ideally we would have a beta version to test before the end of the year, if the QA of that beta is satisfactory we can start using it to collect and review sentences. And I have to say I understand it’s frustrating but please, keep collecting sentences so we can submit them through the tool as soon as it’s ready. Gracias por vuestras paciencia :wink:

And where do we contribute with spanish sentences? Me and some colleges from the University would like to colaborate in the Spanish part of this project. Ty :wink:

You can start collecting sentences with public domain license anytime and use any form to store them in the meantime. As soon as the tool is ready you will be able to submit them for peer-review and approval. Please, note that we want the sentence collection tool to enforce some hard requirements that are necessary for sentences to be useful for the machine learning algorithm: Numbers. There should be no digits in the source text because they can cause problems when read aloud. The way a number is read depends on context and might introduce confusion in the dataset. For example, the number “2409” could be accurately read as both “twenty-four zero nine” and “two thousand four hundred nine”. Abbreviations and Acronyms. Abbreviations and acronyms like “USA” or “ICE” should be avoided in the source text because they may be read in a way that does not coincide with their spelling. Additionally, there may be multiple accurate readings for a single abbreviation. For example, the acronym “ICE” could be pronounced “I-C-E” or as a single word. Punctuation. Special symbols and punctuation should only be included when absolutely necessary. For example, an apostrophe is included in English words like “don’t” and “we’re” and should be included in the source text, but it’s unlikely you’ll ever need a special symbol like “@” or “#.” Foreign letters. Letters must be valid in the language being spoken. For example, “ж” is a letter in the Russian alphabet but is never used in English and so should never appear in any English source text.

Hi, Any update about the sentence collection tool availability for Spanish? Thanks, Mar

We plan to launch the beta version of the tool next week. You can follow the development in Sentence collection tool development topic

Hi, The sentence collection tool is ready and now I am adding and reviewing sentences in Spanish. Great. But the Common Voice site localization in Spanish is never ending, but indeed it is getting worse (from 95% completion in December to 75% now). Where can I fix this?. Directly with a github pull request or any other tool?. Tanks, Mar
