This data was collected as part of the First Language Acquisition of Thai project, funded by The Swedish Foundation for International Cooperation in Research and Higher Education (STINT) and hosted by the Department of Linguistics, Chulalongkorn, Thailand during 2000. In 2026, it was found that the transcripts could not link to the audio. Therefore a new set of transcripts was created using ASR but these have not yet been cleaned or checked. The originals can be found here.
