Field notes

The pilot separates expressive Mandarin speech from natural conversational style, offering emotion labels alongside long and short turns with hesitation, emphasis, and everyday pacing. Its production structure includes Simplified Chinese transcripts, source and delivery IDs, speaker metadata, checksums, QC results, and a data card. The page lists 7,000 clips for speaker M002 and 7,499 for speaker PAN, with speaker-specific 48 kHz master specifications.
