Does anyone have any information regarding a standard corpus of speech 
for languages other than English?  I'm thinking of something similar to
the phonetically balanced Harvard sentences in English, which could be
used in speech coding work, voice recognition, etc.  Any information is 
appreciated - email reply preferred.  Thanks!
