Does anybody know, whether there are any audio files (i.e. spoken/sung
transcripts) for the artificial language Solresol available? I've tried
to locate that through some websites of the artificial language movement,
but could not find it.

Best,

I'm currently looking into the eternal problem of trying to determine on
what basis adult learners of English replace segments they don't have in
their L1. I'm particularly interested in the interdental fricatives /T
D/ (as in *thin* and *that*), and I have data on quite a few
languages. However, I'd be very curious to know what speakers of Haitian
French do with these consonants. Do they generally substitute /s z/, /t
d/ or something else, and is there a difference between their strategy
and that of Creole speakers? Any observations and/or references on this
would be most welcome.
