Dataset Introduction
MagicData-Dialect-Henan Dialect-TTS-Lite is an open-source Henan Dialect TTS subset of the MagicData-Dialect-TTS-Lite collection released by Magic Data. It focuses on authentic Henan dialect speech and is designed for research scenarios such as dialect speech synthesis, acoustic analysis, and model evaluation.
The dataset contains approximately 10 minutes of speech data, recorded by one native Henan dialect speaker from Zhengzhou. The speaker was born and raised in the local region, and the recordings preserve authentic local accent, intonation, and expression habits.

Usage Recommendations
Suitable for:
- Zero-shot / few-shot baseline testing for multi-dialect TTS models
- Acoustic analysis of dialectal phonetic features
- Comparative experiments in academic research
Not suitable for:
- Directly training production-level dialect TTS products, as the dataset is non-commercial and limited in scale
- Evaluating extreme scenarios, such as noisy environments, far-field recording, or children’s voices
