# Twi 16-Word Speech Segments

48775 speech-text pairs split from long recordings.

## Processing pipeline
1. Source audio from `ghananlpcommunity/ewe-tts-bible-full-audio-text`
2. Full-file CTC forced alignment (MMS-300M) for word-level timestamps
3. Words grouped into 16-word segments
4. Leading/trailing silence trimmed with VAD (-40 dBFS threshold)
5. Filtered: min 1.0s, max 15.0s
6. Original sample rate preserved (24kHz)

## Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("ghananlpcommunity/ewe-bible-audio-text-tts", split="train")
```
