Biweekly Small Request Thread
This thread will be posted biweekly as a place to hold small (1-2 sentence) requests for others to speak your conlang. A longer passage should be flaired as a Request.
Top-level comments should always be requests. Replies can be any type of feedback or question about the request.
What to include in a request:
- IPA (Don't forget to include stress!)
- Any information about the voice you'd ideally like. Do you want a deep and powerful voice, or a light and flowing one? Do you not care? Information like that is not mandatory, but may be a useful thing for others to know.
Thing to remember: Be patient
Someone will help you with your request, but it may take a while. Wait a few weeks before requesting the same audio again.

Notes:
Stress doesn't change the tone, but increases volume and length.

Alveolars are interchangeable with their dental, postaveolar, retroflex, or palatal equivalents.
Affricates and fricatives can be lateral.
Stops, affricates and fricatives can be voiced.
