Can I claim section 6, please?

Also, is there a pronunciation preference for "fungi"? Fun-jee or Fun-guy?

Thanks!

Hello,

Edited, as I did not see someone else previously asked for Section 6.

I would like to claim Section 7of this project please. As this will be my first recording (test has been approved), I would like my name to appear as Carla Marvin in the library catalog please.

Thank you and I look forward to working with everyone on this!

Thank you!
You have Section 6

You are free to use whichever pronunciation you like - hard or soft "g" and short or long "i". So, that's at least four possible ways, and there may be others . . . .

Thanks, Carla!

Just two issues on initial check.

First, the file name is incorrect,
Your will always find the format for each project under bullet point 8 of the first where it says:

Save files as
128 kbps MP3
toadstools_##_smith_128kb.mp3 (all lower-case) where ## is the section number (e.g. toadstools_01_smith_128kb.mp3)

So, instead of your forum name, put in the author;s name which is smith in this case.

Second, under point 7 you will find this instruction in bold:

There should be ~5 seconds silence at the end of the recording.

This one has only about 3 seconds.

So, please add the additional time at the end and upload it again with the corrected file name, and we'll give it a full proof listen.

Thanks so much for participating in this project!

Larry,

I have changed the filename and added silence to the recording. I hope I did it correctly this time. Please let me know after you listen to it if there are any other changes needed. Thank you.

Thanks you!

Is there something different with the section 7 file? When I right click to download, the 'save link as' is greyed out and this hasn't happened with any of the other sections. Can you check?

Ummm. I copy and paste the URL, but in this case didn't gett the beginning letter "h" so the creates an unworkable link, of course.

All fixed.

Hi Catherine,

All was good except there was too much time in the beginning.

00:00 - please reduce the silence at the start of the recording. It should be no more than 1 second.

Thank you!
