Thanks

Well,.I give up. This still has nearly 20 seconds at the end. I'm not quite sure why trimming the end is so difficult. But, I've done it for you and uploaded the new file so it is PL OK.

Okay, I've added you to the LibriVox catalog, assigned this section you, and put your file in the MagicWindow marked Ready for PL.
Our proof listener will be along to give you a report.

Just click on your name in the MW to view your personal catalog page where you can track all of your LV work, of which I hope there will be a lot.

WELCOME TO LIBRIVOX! :clap:

section 186 - https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/fablesofaesop_186_aesop_128kb.mp3
Track Length 2:21.92 (m:ss.ss)

section 187 - https://librivox.org/uploads/alg1001/fablesofaesop_187_aesop_128kb.mp3
Track Length 2:26.18 (m:ss.ss)

Hope they're okay,
please let me know if there is anything I can improve upon.
Again, lovely reading Tasniim!
I've marked 186 PL OK but cannot pass 187 until you make the final silence a full 5 secs - it's really not close enough. Check my post below for an easy way to confirm pauses are the right length.

Now, purely for your learning (because you asked), your intonation is not quite right on 'provocative' - the stress is on the second syllable. This link has some examples of how it sounds https://dictionary.cambridge.org/pronunciation/english/provocative
Also, poignant (you do get difficult words in your Fables by the way!) treats the g as a y (probably because it comes from the French language). https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/poignant But I emphasise these are VERY small things and your readings are lovely to listen to.
Thank you! I will practice those sounds, the links are very helpful.

Track Length 2:28.19 (m:ss.ss)

I added the silence at the end, I hope It's okay now.

May I take section 79?

I've put you in for these.
We're looking for a fairly quick turn around on these orphaned sections so we can finish this book soon.
