+# OpenSLR-65 – Tamil Transcribed Speech
+
+**Source:** [https://www.openslr.org/65/](https://www.openslr.org/65/)
+
+## Dataset Description
+
+This dataset contains transcribed high-quality audio of Tamil sentences recorded
+by volunteers. It is part of the [OpenSLR](https://www.openslr.org) collection of
+free speech resources for low-resource languages.
+
+The data was collected via the
+[Appen](https://appen.com) (formerly Figure Eight / CrowdFlower) crowdsourcing
+platform and is intended for use in training automatic speech recognition (ASR)
+and text-to-speech (TTS) systems.
+
+### Data Collection
+
+Volunteers were asked to read Tamil sentences displayed on their screen and
+record themselves. Quality control was performed to ensure accurate transcriptions
+and clean audio.
