Abstract

Punjabi is an important Indo-Aryan languages spoken in India and in some other countries especially Pakistan. It is a tonal language and its phonetic and phonological aspects have not been studied very much. The present paper reports development of phonemically annotated speech database of Malwai dialect of Punjabi. A phonetically rich text database of 1500 words and 300 sentences from a corpus of about 300,000 words was created. These were recorded by 25 male and 25 female speaker format with sampling rate of 16 kHz and 16 bit. The recordings were made in the native places of speakers possessing the original version the Malwai dialect of Punjabi. The recorded data was segmented and labeled phonemically to get the phonemic and sub-phonemic elements of each phoneme and the tonemes of Punjabi language. The annotated database can be useful for phonetic studies and to develop Punjabi speech synthesis system.

旁遮普语注释语音数据库的语料库设计与开发

旁遮普语是一种重要的印度雅利安语言，在印度和其他一些国家，特别是巴基斯坦使用。它是一种声调语言，其语音和音系方面的研究还不多。本文报道了旁遮普马尔瓦伊方言语音注释数据库的开发。从大约30万个单词的语料库中创建了一个包含1500个单词和300个句子的语音丰富的文本数据库。这些录音采用25男25女扬声器格式，采样率为16 kHz, 16位。这些录音是在拥有原始版本的旁遮普Malwai方言的人的家乡录制的。对记录的数据进行分割和音位标记，得到旁遮普语每个音位的音位元和次音位元以及音位。该数据库可用于旁遮普语语音研究和旁遮普语语音合成系统的开发。
