# OpenSLR-80 – Brumese Transcribed Speech

**Source:** [https://www.openslr.org/80/](https://www.openslr.org/80/)

## Dataset Description
- **Homepage:** [OpenSLR SLR80](https://www.openslr.org/80/)

This dataset contains transcribed high-quality audio of Burmese sentences recorded
by female 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 Burmese sentences displayed on their screen and
record themselves. Quality control was performed to ensure accurate transcriptions
and clean audio.

### Contents

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `file_id` | Anonymized identifier for the audio file |
| `audio` | WAV audio file (mono) |
| `transcription` | Burmese text transcription of the utterance |
| `duration` | Duration of the audio in seconds |
