Hey, sorry again for the long silence; between school, work, bad weather (having a tin roof has its drawbacks), sickness and just general depression, I haven't had a good chance to sit down and properly respond. I've been battling and debating myself what to do with this reading, as well as how to r...

Hi Michael, I've done some thinking, and decided I will be finishing the recordings. I found a partially edited version of chapter two, and should be able to find some time for recording the others. I think it'll be a waste to abandon it, and putting it on hold will probably just leave it motionless...

Hey Michael, Sorry for the long silence, uni got the better of me. I don't think I'll be continuing the project in the foreseeable future. I might come back to it sometime, but there's no point in keeping it open as of now. (plus, rainy season is starting up, and my tin roof makes it hard to record....

No, I'm skipping the Russian transcriptions and transliterations (anything in the gray boxes), as I'm fairly certain that those are the transcriber's notes (plus, I can't speak Russian – the names are challenging enough!)

Hi Michael, I'm very glad you picked up the project. I look forward to working with you as well! I updated the chapters of the Magic Window, and uploaded the first two sections, which I had already recorded. This is my first time working on a solo project, so let me know if there are any problems wi...

And one more please, this time Hebrew: 5 words on this page https://archive.org/details/sim_the-bibliotheca-sacra_1896-10_53_212/page/636/mode/1up and two phrases on this page https://archive.org/details/sim_the-bibliotheca-sacra_1896-10_53_212/page/640/mode/1up I'd love a recording so I can imitat...

Hey there, PL for current chapters (books 1 through 4) looks good. Two minor notes: In the intro to Book 1, Armand Kaminka isn't mentioned as a Doctor ("תורגם על ידי אהרן קמינקא" instead of "תורגם על ידי ד״ר אהרן קמינקא") (slightly irrelevant, but I just want to make sure) The wr...

Hey there, I'll be glad to act as PL for this project. A small problem, however – the source text listed in the head topic is unviewable (the item is listed as 'not available online' due to copyright restrictions): https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=njp.32101060869359 Once a working link is avai...

You read very well. There's only one small fix needed, if you would, please. It occurs at 4:30 in your recording, and is from this rule: Text reads: "You must become acquainted by degrees with all the principal works of the more celebrated masters." You said "antiquated by degrees......

Hey there, Happy to submit "Advice to Young Musicians"; a short collection of tips and proverbs aimed at young music students written by German composer and music critic Robert Schumann. Upload: https://librivox.org/uploads/knotyouraveragejo/snf089_adviceyoungmusicians_schumann_nl_128kb.mp...

I just listened to the poem by Rachel (פגישה, חצי פגישה). Enjoyed listening to it - very well read. You have the green light from me :thumbs: So as long as you fix the technical notes from Michael, it should be good to deem this one PL OK :) Thank you, Guy! Michael Thanks guys, corrected version he...

We can only use texts from BenYehuda.org if they state clearly the publication year of the edition they transcribed, and the year is 1925 or earlier (1926 for the coming year). Hey Michael, You're right, the publication date isn't listed (BenYehuda.org is pretty bad at doing that...). However, I se...

Hey there, Happy to submit the Hebrew poem "Meeting, Half Meeting" (פגישה, חצי פגישה – Pgisha, Khatzi Pgisha) by the Israeli poet Rachel. A short poem about the flood of emotions that come after a brief meeting with a lover, written in 1925. MP3: https://librivox.org/uploads/toddhw/msw031_...

looks good to me. I can't help with the Hebrew script, but if you copied it from the MW, I think Michael checked this entry beforehand. Sonia Hey there, The Hebrew script is ok (I'm not entirely sure what the standards are for this, but grammatically everything is correct) One note however – in the...
