Open Source Chinese Audio Files?

[Harvey]

Hello,

Does anyone know of a free, open source, use for whatever you want, creative commons sort of stockpile of Chinese Audio files?

Looking for a ton of audio files of common vocabulary words that I can listen to and possibly use in a pet project I'm working on. A sort of flashcard game thing.

Any help appreciated!

FSI should be usable for that

@BrandeX, I assume that the FSI are full sentences? Then the OP will need to take each sentence and break it into words for what I assume the purpose is. This sounds like a lot of work.

@Harvey, I've been thinking of something like this, but focusing only on numbers. It still embarrasses me to the point that I will never admit it in public, but I still don't "understand" numbers spoken in Chinese, I need to translate into English. I want to be able to think in Chinese numbers. What I think would help me do that is just a drill program that says a (random) number in Chinese, and I need to type it in. I think with a lot of reps I could learn to do that without translating it. Maybe as a start you could focus on that? Please?

This is a great collection that I've had bookmarked for a while. I personally do not use it because I have Pleco which I paid for, but it looks pretty good. It is licensed Creative Commons.
