Practise recording your voice!

HELP MAGGOTS!! This won’t take long. My colleague Dominick is based in Munich and is doing his thesis on the spread of the new Dublin accent throughout Ireland, through media such as RTÉ.

He is looking for speech samples from people who are from Dublin and from people who are from other parts of Ireland.

All recordings will be stored anonymously and confidentially.

If you want to help, you should record your name, age and where you grew up and then this text:-

On the first day of March, Conor was walking through town in mild spring weather. It would be night soon but he was done shopping. On his way home he got lost near Merrion Square. That was no big deal, he thought.
He passed a girl playing on the path with a boat and a toy whale. She also had a modern watch, so Conor asked her for the time. The girl glanced up at him. Her face was not very clean but she had a soft voice. It’s three past four, she said.

If you use Whatsapp on your smart/android phone, you should send your recording to this number – +49 15733136955 or you can send your recording to this email address do.se.instruments@gmail.com

Thanks from Dominick
