Op de dei fan #EDL, @phatt_do fan @CampusFryslan by gearkomste Shaping the Future of Linguistic Diversity:"For minority languages like Frisian, voice technology brings not only a risk, but also an opportunity to increase their presence in everyday life, especially for the youth."

Thank you @ukrantgroningen for the opportunity to share and discuss my latest work involving a #Frisian synthetic voice, part of my PhD project in synthetic speech for low-resource languages at @CampusFryslan with co-supervisors @klabbers_esther @JelskeD and @mlcoler.
Our PhD researcher @phatt_do is featured in the UKrant for his work on a Frisian synthetic voice. Read all about it! @klabbers_esther @JelskeD @mlcoler ukrant.nl/magazine/a-frisian…

If you speak Frisian, please kindly help with a 20-minute listening experiment of synthetic (artificial) Frisian speech at tinyurl.com/fryske-spraak. Your evaluation of these synthetic Frisian sentences will help assessing different methods to create a Frisian voice. Tige tank!
