Real voices: how native speakers say it

These sentences were read aloud by real people — native Japanese speakers — for the open Mozilla Common Voice project. Listen to how a phrase sounds in real speech: the intonation, the pace, the way words run together. Two speakers mean two different people read it — compare them.

これもまた、自分の幼く悲しい道化の一種でした
これもまた、じぶんのおさなくかなしいどうけのいっしゅでしたThis too was a kind of my own childish and sad clowning.
