Speech database is an indispensable part of speech research. Speech database is necessary to use in speech research and development processes, and to evaluate performances of various speech-processing systems. To use speech database for common purpose, it is necessary to design utterance list that has all the possible phonetical events in minimal number of words, and is independent of tasks. To meet those restrictions this paper extracts PBW set from large text corpus. Speech database that was constructed using PBW set for utterance list and its properties are described in this paper.
