prq)This datasheet is for cv-corpus-26.0-2026-06-12 of the Mozilla Common Voice Scripted Speech dataset for Asheninka Perene [prq - prq]. The dataset contains 7660 clips representing 10.05 hours of recorded speech (9.74 hours validated) from 13 speakers, recorded from a text corpus of 986 sentences.
The Asheninka are a South America first nation and their language belong to the Arawak linguistic family, they are primarily located in the central Peruvian rainforest between the eastern Andes and the Ucayali River, a region known as the Gran Pajonal due to its extensive tropical grasslands. Their cultural identity is deeply tied to their language, ancestral practices, and a profound connection to their territory, which they view as essential to their livelihood and cultural distinctiveness. This relationship fosters a strong ethic of environmental respect and sustainability, central to their organized community structure and long-standing desire for formal recognition separate from other Indigenous groups.
