================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Dear Linguists,

I am looking for a database of minimal pairs including audio samples from a
variety of talkers. Is anyone aware of such a database in the speech
therapy, ESOL or speech recognition? Ideally, I am looking for a British
database.

Thanks for your help with this.
I post a summary of all responses.
