### Dataset Summary

This is a **10K hours** subset of **[English version of the Multilingual LibriSpeech (MLS) dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/parler-tts/mls_eng)**.

8 languages - English, German, Dutch, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Polish. It includes about 44.5K hours of English and a total of about 6K hours for other languages.

This dataset card includes the 10K hours of English. Refers to this [dataset card](https://huggingface.co/datasets/facebook/multilingual_librispeech) for the other languages.
