And a big thank you, Brian, for your patience and understanding--and for bringing me onto this wonderful work. What a story and ending! :shock:

I'm working on those other fixes pointed out by Gill...I'll come back to you all again soon on those! :)
Ah, Rel, it's so fitting that you got this project rolling with a lively and spirited reading of the section on Loti and are now bringing it to a glorious conclusion in Part V! :clap:

(Hey, if I were to send you a PM with a list of open projects that I am BC on, would you consider reading on one or the other of them? Or, have you given some consideration to a solo by now?)

At 4:24 you pronounce "Leopoldine" differently from elsewhere.

Optional:
For "Norden Fjords" I hear something like "Nuan Fu-ah" (at 0:49, 1:41, 2:09 and 3:12), but whether you take it as English or Icelandic (or even French) the pronunciation would be just as it looks. Do you have a reason for pronouncing it this way?
:hmm: I actually wasn't 100% sure about the pronounciation of "Norden Fjords" and I guess Google was wrong to tag it as Danish (which is what I had followed: the Danish pronounciation--which sounds like "Nuan Fu-ah", I guess!). Go figure. :?

I'll fix these both soon. :)
Alrighty, Section 49 is now fixed and reuploaded! :clap:
https://librivox.org/uploads/kitty/icelandfisherman_49_loti_128kb.mp3 [5:52]

Note: the time increased from 5:50 to 5:52.
I also noticed I missed the word 'same' in the line "Suddenly on the same empty wall..." so I fixed that here too. :)

Tks for thinking of me, Brian! I'm always open to a PM of open projects by you AND I don't normally say that I'll commit to something unless I really plan to do so. :wink: Indeed! I am thinking of a solo piece...But probably after the holidays! :D

0:38 “that, it had not been…” read for “that had it not been …”
Noted! :shock: I'll fix this after fixing Section 49.
Let me come back to you.
Fixed and reuploaded Section 50 :clap: :

GillH wrote: November 30th, 2022, 1:00 pm PL for Section 51:
Just again the pronunciation of Leopoldine at 2:44, 4:03 and 4:20 - in the earlier sections you were saying "...deen" but in this section each time it's the diphthong "ai" (as in "my")

[That's what I meant in the PL for Section 49: you had said "...een" each time until that final instance at 4:24.]

You're right - "quiet" was a typo; however, '2d' is quite often found as an alternative or older form of '2nd'. All good!

Thanks!
Tks Gill for catching my inconsistent French accent! :lol:
All fixed for Section 51 and reuploaded :clap: :

[Optional edit at 7:15 You pronounce "habiliments" as if it were French, but it's the English word.]
