Об озвучке
All 142 recordings were generated with Microsoft Edge's neural text-to-speech voices — ru-RU-SvetlanaNeural and ru-RU-DmitryNeural — through the edge-tts package, then trimmed and re-encoded. The MP3 files ship with this site; nothing is synthesised in your browser and no service is contacted while you read.
Svetlana narrates and voices Anna; the grandmother uses the same voice at a lower pitch and slower pace so the three speakers stay apart; Dmitry speaks the grandfather's remembered line.
