If you are a native speaker of American English, and if you understand Spanish, this micro job may be for you. It's a very SHORT work, just ONE word, but could be tough. There's one word repeated twice in a youtube clip that I can not figure out what it is. Listen to the context (about 15 seconds) they're spoken and figure out what the word is. It's possible that some knowledge in Spanish might help. Here's the video. You can fast forward to 3:43. [login to view URL] The word appears as TINNY, TINNY in the closed caption (see below). 3:43 "I remember my mom would always say, you know, the only way we're gonna get out of here and get out of this environment is for you and your brother to go to college one day. In order to get scholarships, TINNY, TINNY, really good university, we had to go to a high school with a good academic program..." I need you to figure out what this "TINNY, TINNY" is. I thought about "teeny" (tiny) but it would not fit into this sentence. My budget is $10. If you're successful, there might be more of such micro jobs from time to time. Please note, that what you figure out needs to make a complete sense. A mere guesswork will not be accepted. Thank you.

The words he says are “to any”. “In order to get scholarships to any good university...”. He just stutters and repeats the phrase “to any” twice.

I am a transcriber of 15 years' experience, so have listened to a lot of unintelligible speech over that time. However, in this case, my suggestion does amount to a guess, and I will state it here, so it is up to you whether you think it is correct and would like to pay me for it. It does make sense! I think the speaker stumbles over the word, says it twice and is not successful in getting it out correctly either time. "In order to get scholarships, TO ATTEND a really good university, we had to go to a high school with a good academic program ..."

Hi, I would like to be part of your job. I am a Spanish native and I have a degree as an English teacher. I listened the audio several times before bid because I wanted to send you a sentence that correctly matches what you are requesting. I am totally sure that my sentence fits your requirements because it fits completely into the context of what is saying the person into the video. Sentence according to the context of the video: In order to get scholarships, from we were teeny, teeny, (She told us) if you wanted to go to a really good university, we had to go to a high school with a good academic program...

Hi. I´ve got your word! I wish I could charge you less than $10, but this is the minimum value here at Freelancer. For this value, I´d be glad to also help you with other words you can´t understand in this video. Please let me know if there are any others that you can´t make out. And please hire me so I can give you your word. Best, David

Hi, I am pretty sure they are saying “to any” - so... “to any - to any good college, you’ve gotta go to...” Americans sometimes speak really fast, and their words can get mumbled together:)

THEY NEED REALLY GOOD UNIVERSITY: After listening to the video, and taking into consideration the context, I'll go with this: "They need really good university" because in those seconds they are telling us what their mother told them at that time. So, the extract would like this: I remember what my mom would always say: (mom speaking) "you know, the only way we will get out here, get out of this environment is...for you and your brother to go to college one day...in order to get scholarships...they'll need, they'll need really good university...

Hi! You don't have to accept my bid, just wanted to let you know what the word is. From reviewing the audio, the speaker says "to any, to any" (talking about applying to any good universities). It's quite normal for native speakers or other English speakers to pronounce 'to' as 'te(r) ' especially when it's linked to the following word. So when said together it sounds like "t- any, t- any" Anyway, hope this helps you out. Regards, Ayeshah
