You can more easily just use the advanced search, chose your desired list in the "Belongs to list:" option, set the sort order to random and then click the "search" button.

Here is a template set up with the "7&8-word English Sentences with Audio" list chosen. Just change that to your desired list.

🍎 For Those Studying Japanese

http://study.aitech.ac.jp/recent-jpn/

This should use the text-to-speech (TTS) Japanese voice you have setup for your computer, if you have done so. When you click the "next" button, you will hear the sentence being spoken as the next sentence is being loaded.

This does not work on an iPhone, at least not on mine.
It worked in the 9 browsers I tested it with on a Macintosh.
I haven't yet checked it on Windows or Linux.

These were the 10,000 most-recently added Japanese sentences in the 2022-11-26 exported data that were owned by 3 of our prolific native-speaker contributors,bunbuku, small_snow, and KK_kaku_.

This starts with the most-recent sentence in the 2022-11-26 exported data and goes in reverse numerical order.

I suspect that it still doesn't actually work.

> ... substituting the names Tom and Mary with random common male and female names ...

You can also try some of these demos that I made in 2017 to see names being randomly substituted.

http://aitstudy.com/sub/

Each time you load the pages, you'll get another random selection.

Perhaps, ...

dated
* the information in the sentence is dated
* the usage is dated
* the kinds of sentences a language textbook editor might recommend not be included. (Textbook editors often will even suggest not including things that are likely to soon become dated, since they want the help increase the shelf life of the materials they are editing.)

old-fashioned
* similar to "dated," I think.
* words, phrases and sentence patterns that your grandparents might say, but that you wouldn't say.
* things that we don't hear often today, if at all, that you might hear in movies or read in books from or about previous generations. These would be useful for students of a language to understand passively, but should likely not use themselves.

archaic
* things that are very old and maybe even difficult for currently-living native speakers to understand.
* things, even though understood by native speakers, would sound very strange if they said them.

These are idea just off the top my head. The Tatoeba Project has no clear guidelines on usage of these tags.

Here are other related tags.

To be fair to Synthesia, they didn't advertise that switching languages mid-video in their demo version was a possibility. I just did that as a test, wondering if they were set up to do that.

Interestingly, the iPhone text-to-speech (TTS) will switch languages between English and Japanese without manually choosing to do so, though sometimes if it's just a word or short phrase, the Japanese gets read as Chinese instead of Japanese. On a Mac, the TTS voice needs to be manually changed, depending on the text to be read. I think it's that way on Windows, too, but I haven't recently checked.

Problems can arise for websites or apps that use our data without carefully harvesting sentences to use since the Tatoeba Corpus contains a number of errors. Using the complete database is not a good idea.

Do you mean that if you look at the following, that you only see "one minute ago" for all comments?

https://tatoeba.org/en/sentence_comments/index

This is how I see it.

https://ibb.co/7Kpc0Px

Of this series of sentences you mention, these are the only directly-linked translations. The others are translations of translations.

ron
Nu pot să vorbesc.
https://tatoeba.org/en/sentences/show/5676528

deu
Ich kann nicht sprechen.
eng
I can't talk.
eng
I can't speak.
epo
Mi ne povas paroli.
fra
Je ne peux pas parler.
nds
Ik kann nich snacken.
nld
Ik kan niet spreken.
por
Não posso falar.
spa
No puedo hablar.
tur
Konuşamam.

As long as this Romanian sentence can be correctly translated by all the directly-linked sentences, then there is no problem.
