There's no way to download them, but you can search for them using the following.

This is a template set up to show the shortest such sentences first.

https://tatoeba.org/en/sentence...roved=no&user=

If you prefer another sort, you can change that in the lower right-hand corner.

You can fine-tune it to only show German sentences by those claiming to be native speakers.

https://tatoeba.org/en/sentence...roved=no&user=

Or, even focus on German sentences by one particular username, for example Pfirsichbaeumchen.

https://tatoeba.org/en/sentence...rsichbaeumchen

You could bookmark this "dashboard" of useful links to get several options for German to English translating.

Most of these have Japanese translations, since many are from the Tanaka Corpus.

Deniko asked about identifying (regional) accents of the voices, so I thought it would be more useful to group audio files by speaker than to dump all the audio files into one account. This way, the profile page of each could include information we know about a given voice.

Also, when proof-listening to the audio files, it works well to focus on audio files by voices that sound good and ignore those with with low quality (noise, too quiet, long pauses, etc.) audio. This saves a lot of time, since a much higher percentage of audio files listened to can actually be used.

It seems that the voices with a very large number of files have audio files with a much higher recording quality. I suspect that these were created offline using software like the Shtooka Recorder, and were not recorded using the Common Voice online recorder.

Remember for our use, any suggestion needs to work well at 30 X 20 pixels.

30 X 20 pixels - Eliahu21's suggestion - Objectivesea's suggestion - Part of the Bowl as a Flag

The third one is just an experiment to see how selecting part of the mentioned bowl to be used as a flag on tatoeba.org might look.

For those interested, you can hear multiple voices from Common Voice on several proverbs.

https://tatoeba.org/en/audio/of/CVAF

83 audio files for the 5 sentences.

More than one audio file per sentence is now possible.

[#280288] Birds of a feather flock together.

Click the audio play button over and over again to hear various voices.
This example sentence has about 30 audio files, as a test.

> ... hiding "indirect translations" ... maybe give users the choice to show them anyway but not as the default.

Making the showing of "indirect translations" an opt-in choice, rather than the default, would make things less confusing.

This way, new members and non-members would not be confused by these.

Minimally, perhaps we could make "indirect translations" not show to anyone with less than "advanced contributor" status, since they don't have the option to link these.

> But how did the first two English sentences get linked together? How can "He is running" be ever equivalent to "You run"?

You will notice that these are not directly linked. It's not only possible that pronouns can be different when translating, since some languages don't use pronouns, but verb forms can easily be different for indirect translations.

CK CK May 16, 2022 May 16, 2022 at 12:08:42 AM UTC link Permalink

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

Since this is specifically about a given sentence, I think you should leave the comment on the sentence itself, instead of on the Wall.

It hasn't been recently updated. Perhaps someone would volunteer to maintain this.

@TRANG

Perhaps you could create a place on tatoeba.org for people to submit links like on http://bit.ly/tatoebalinks .

I know it would be possible to use the Wiki for this, but maybe something similar to the vocabulary request layout, with 4 fields might be better.

It would be useful if we could have more than one kind of comment for sentences and opt in to getting email messages only for the kind of comments we wanted to have emailed to us.

* suggested corrections. (I would opt in for emails for this kind of comment.)

* socializing, arguments, cute quotes, thanks, etc. (I would opt out.)

* "Related" / "Annotations" / comments about the sentence. (I would opt out.)

There is a (closed) 2015 GitHub issue related to this idea.
