I had no idea that these were available to use as content. Does anyone have more information about this? Would I be allowed to transcribe some TEDxHelsinki talks in Finnish?
Wow, I just checked the TEDx Tals website! I had no idea there were so many talks in so many languages. I will start transcribing a few in the coming days
About the copyright issue: if LingQ did get the authorization to share the English-language ones, I don’t see the problem. After all, LingQ is subject to the Canadian laws, isn’t it? Mark?
Steve, the speaker of the talk I’m transcribing is a Professor or scientist I had never heard of. He talks about how the DNA of cows can help us discover more about humans.
Yvette, I’m glad to know you are interested. I hope you won’t be alone.
Well, you know which is the better route for you! I would find it extremely painful to record a 20-minute text myself. I prefer transcribing audio files at a slower pace (3-4 minutes per day) than getting frustrated for not being able to produce a good recording of a long text. And anyway, there are quite a lot of talks in Italian, but I guess you didn’t look at them.
