2. Any missing python scripts, please contact me ASAP or create an issue.
3. Please at least email us first before distributing these data. Remember all these hard workings we want to give it for free.
4. What do you see just the data, but nobody can see how much we spent our cost to make it public.

Suggestion

1. Feel free to contact me to request new dataset.
2. Feel free to open an issue if the link to dataset is forbidden, sometime I forgot to make it open to public.

Non-commercial Usage

A lot of data here semisupervised / translated / tagged / decoded using third party software, example, Google Translate, Google Speech, so to avoid any future complication, it is better not use this data for commercial purposes but allow for certain research purposes.
