Do you speak western Circassian? We need native speakers to help us finish the audio!
Hey everyone. We've built the Circassian App. It has about 14,000 users now(!!!), mostly Circassians and people with Circassian family trying to learn the language.
The Western Circassian (Adyghe) course is basically ready. The only thing left is audio. My friend recorded all the Eastern (Kabardian) audio, but she doesn't speak Western, so she can't do this part. We've got a good chunk done from other people, but we still need more voices to finish.
If you speak Adyghe at any level, even a little, even if you haven't spoken it in years, you can help here:

You record a word, other speakers vote, and the best ones go into the app. Takes a couple minutes. You don't have to record a lot. Even ten words from each person adds up fast.
And if you don't speak it yourself but you know someone who does, a parent, a grandparent, an aunt, a friend, please send this to them. A lot of the people who can actually help aren't on Reddit. One text from you could be the thing that gets their voice into the app.
Happy to answer any questions about the app or the project.
