Indonesian Code-Switching Speech Dataset
Indonesian code-switching speech sourced to your specification — no inventory, no fixed listing. This page covers what is specifically hard about this pairing, and which fields your specification needs to pin down.
Why code-switching speech in Indonesian is its own problem
The complexity of Indonesian code-switching is that it can run three ways at once — Indonesian, a local language (Javanese or Sundanese), and English inside a single sentence. The annotation scheme has to carry three or more language labels, not a binary A/B switch.
The field to pin down first: The annotation scheme must support switching among three or more languages, with a language label on every word position. Binary annotation will not do.

What code-switching speech data is
Speech that mixes two or more languages inside a single utterance — Hinglish, Spanglish, Taglish — used for recognition in real spoken settings.
What buyers get wrong about it
The switch point is the hard part — where language A gives way to B inside a sentence, different annotators can place it several words apart. The guideline has to be fixed before annotation starts.
The specification field that decides the quote
Whether annotation marks word-level switch points or only tags the language of the whole utterance — the workload differs by a multiple.
The language side: what Indonesian demands
In everyday speech, Indonesians mix in local languages (Javanese, Sundanese) and English loanwords heavily. Three language components inside a single sentence is normal, so word segmentation and annotation rules have to be fixed before collection begins.
What we can put in this delivery
-
Read and conversational speech
Scripted recording for TTS, and unscripted conversation for recognition. Specified separately because they need different speaker pools.
-
Transcription to your convention
Orthographic or phonetic, with the guideline written before production and shared with you for review.
-
Speaker metadata
Age band, gender, region and dialect background per file, so you can slice the dataset rather than take it whole.
-
Consent documentation
Signed speaker consent covering the intended use, plus collection methodology and the annotation guideline.
-
Pilot batch
A small batch first, which you can reject. Misalignments surface after a few hours rather than at delivery.
-
Delivery in your format
Audio format, sampling rate, segmentation length and metadata schema set to your pipeline's requirements.
What arrives in a delivery
| Component | What it is |
|---|---|
| Audio files | Format, sampling rate and segmentation length set to your pipeline. Named to a convention you specify. |
| Transcription | Orthographic or phonetic, produced under a guideline you review before production starts. |
| Speaker metadata | Age band, gender, region and dialect background per file, plus a speaker identifier so the dataset can be sliced. |
| Recording conditions | Environment, device and, where relevant, measured signal-to-noise ratio per file. |
| Annotation guideline | The document the annotators worked from, so you can reproduce the conventions on your own data. |
| Consent records | Signed speaker consent covering your intended use, with the transfer mechanism addressed where required. |
| Collection methodology | How speakers were recruited, screened and scheduled — the part that tells you how biased the pool is. |
| Quality report | Pilot outcome, re-work log, and the annotator agreement figures where the task supports measuring them. |
Questions we get about Indonesian Code-Switching Speech
How many distinct speakers can you provide for Indonesian Code-Switching Speech?
It depends on the specification and the timeline, and we will give a real number rather than a target. For this pairing, speaker recruitment is usually the step that sets the schedule. The annotation scheme must support switching among three or more languages, with a language label on every word position. Binary annotation will not do.
Can you annotate to our own guideline instead of the default?
Yes, and for this pairing we would recommend it. The complexity of Indonesian code-switching is that it can run three ways at once — Indonesian, a local language (Javanese or Sundanese), and English inside a single sentence. That is exactly the kind of decision a default guideline leaves open, and it is where annotators diverge. Send us your guideline, or we will draft one and you can review it before production starts.
Do you offer a sample before we commit to a full run?
Yes. Select a free sample in the request form and describe what you need. A pilot batch is the cheapest way to establish whether the quality bar is reachable for Indonesian Code-Switching Speech before committing to the full volume.
Is the data licensed or owned outright?
Licensing terms are set per project, so tell us how the model will be used and whether it will be distributed. Consent documentation travels with the data either way, and we do not handle medical or clinical data or recorded telephone calls.
