Hi! Would you consider adding Serbian language to the dataset? I am interesetd to contribute my voice and as many as I can gather. I suppose this would also be simpler to accomplish if we could gather audio online using an automated website.

Why do you want to use the serbian language?

Why do you want to use the serbian language?

Because it is my native language and my older relatives do not speak english well. I intend to collect my own samples, so I just deployed a website to collect the samples in serbian. So far I shared it with a specific group of facebook friends, but soon I will ask others to join, so I hope to gather a decent sample.

I adjusted the website code so it can be used in any language and uploaded it to github:

https://github.com/ujagaga/audioSampler

so if you reference it here, perhaps the audio repository can grow in other languages too. The goal for me is to train a personal assistant for offline speach to text and custom command execution based on serbian language.
