What is different about generating Kannada

  • Reference clips for Kannada are capped at 12 seconds.
  • Roman-script Indian-language text and English words mixed into an Indian-language script are normalised before generation. Without that step, models trained only on native-script audio tend to skip Latin-script words silently rather than pronounce them.

Reference scripts to read in Kannada

These are the exact prompts Mayantar shows you in the recorder. Each one is timed to land inside the 12-second limit at a natural pace, and each covers something cloning models need: relaxed conversational prosody, spoken digits and dates, and a question with rising intonation. Read one aloud in a quiet room and you have a usable reference clip.

  1. ನಮಸ್ಕಾರ, ಇದು ನನ್ನ ಧ್ವನಿ, ಇಂದು ನಾನು ಒಂದು ಸಣ್ಣ ಮಾದರಿಯನ್ನು ರೆಕಾರ್ಡ್ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ನನಗೆ ಪುಸ್ತಕ ಓದುವುದು ಇಷ್ಟ.
  2. ಕೆಲವು ಸಂಖ್ಯೆಗಳನ್ನು ಹೇಳೋಣ: 1, 2, 3, 4 ಮತ್ತು 5. ನನ್ನ ಸಭೆ ಬೆಳಿಗ್ಗೆ 9:30 ಗಂಟೆಗೆ, ಮಾರ್ಚ್ 15 ರಂದು.
  3. ಒಂದು ಸರಳ ರೆಕಾರ್ಡಿಂಗ್ ಯಾರೊಬ್ಬರ ಧ್ವನಿಯನ್ನು ಹೇಗೆ ಹಿಡಿದಿಡುತ್ತದೆ ಎಂದು ನೀವು ಎಂದಾದರೂ ಯೋಚಿಸಿದ್ದೀರಾ?
