How do I measure the duration of the animation I'm working on?

Hi, guys! I'm new here and I'm also new writing cartoon scripts and drawing storyboards for animation projects. My previous experience was with mobile/desktop games but I confess I'm loving the animated cartoon world. Anyway, the thing is I'm writing a script and I don't know how to measure the amount of time the speeches and actions have. How do I do that? Do I need to record the characters to get an idea?

Recording the characters

Recording the characters sounds like the best plan. Depending on how you read the script, the timing can be very different.
