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.

人の教えのただ鵜呑みにするだけでは、その真理を会得することはできないということ。
ひとのおしえのただうのみにするだけでは、そのしんりをえとくすることはできないということ。If you just swallow others' teachings whole, you will never grasp the truth.
