For Creators

We’re building the Dialect Data project with the help of creators like you! If you’d like to contribute, here’s how to get involved:

What We’re Looking For

  • Natural conversations in everyday settings—cafes, homes, markets, farms.
  • Video preferred (shows gestures, lip movement).
  • Each conversation should be at least 10 minutes long.
  • Dialects: Levantine Arabic from Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, or Yemen (or other regional varieties).
  • Avoid personal details (names, phone numbers) and sensitive topics (politics, religion).

Quality Guidelines

  • Use the best recording device you have—smartphones are fine, just make sure the sound is clear.
  • Choose a well-lit area for videos (natural light is great).
  • Keep the camera steady—use a tripod or prop your phone against something stable.
  • Speak naturally—talk about food, family, daily life, stories, local culture.
