Adding Dutch

[VincentCCL]

Would it be possible to add Dutch? At the Dutch Language Institute (www.ivdnt.org) we might be able to provide you with the right data (just need to check some licenses)

@VincentCCL That would be amazing! Let me know if you need any assistance with preparing the data for inclusion. 😄

[VincentCCL]

I let you know once we've compiled a first list in IPA.

@VincentCCL I would very much welcome the inclusion of Dutch here! To my knowledge there is nothing equivalent available for Dutch currently...

[VincentCCL]

Thanks for the reminder - I'll pick this up again -- sorry for the delay, it's been busy ;-)

[VincentCCL]

You can download the Dutch ipa codes from [here http://www.ccl.kuleuven.be/~vincent/ccl/nl_ipa.txt]
Note that these are automatically converted from another form of phonetic transcriptions and are not hand-checked. A hand-checked version is in preparation but this may take a while before being made publicly available, so therefore we make this list available as is, without any guarantees of correctness.

Thanks a lot, this is very helpful!

@VincentCCL Thanks for following through on this! Just adding the data to the repo now -- may I ask what license this is being released under?

[VincentCCL]

I'll have to inquire -- get back to you asap.

@VincentCCL Any progress on this? The data is ready to go, we just need a license to be able to include it.

[VincentCCL]

I've put it on the agenda for a meeting this week -- hope to give you a definitive answer.

Apparently, everyone is quick in responding today ;-)

• We can make the data available under CC-BY licence, the data is made available by the Instituut voor de Nederlandse Taal (INT) / www.ivdnt.org
• We want to make it clear that this is an automated conversion from different data sources and that no manual correction or revision has been done on the entire set.
• We are open for suggestions / corrections to this list, and will create a repo on our own github for corrections to this list -- I'll provide the url as soon as someone made the repo.

@VincentCCL Fantastic! Thank you. 👍 The Dutch data has now been added, and I have included the information you posted above in the credits section of the Readme. Once the new repo has been created please let me know and I will add a link to it as well so people can provide corrections and suggestions there!
