A panorama of Chinese dialects, painted by speakers through their stories


Recommended Posts

This morning, somebody on Facebook mentioned the website www. phonemica.net, which is dedicated to record spoken stories in every one of the thousand of the varieties of Chinese in order to preserve both the stories and the language for future generations.

This is such an adorable project! Have a look for yourself!

This is very admirable indeed. It takes tremendous effort to pull something like this through. I've been there but was confused with the navigation. It's still in an early stage I assume?

Thanks for sharing this site! As a Hokkien Chinese, it's really interesting to hear people speak in other dialects while sharing their stories.

Thankfully there are transcriptions and translations available though, since I wasn't able to understand some of them.

Thanks for sharing. Obviously a lot of hard work has been into this. Site still looks in its early phase though. Hopefully it will improve  :smile:
