Description
CORPAFROAS is a project funded by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (France), for 2006-2010.
It is the first corpus of spoken Afroasiatic languages that presents sound-indexed data, with elaborate annotations. It is also unique in that it is freely accessible, and is accompanied by software, tools, and publications that will make it easier for field linguists to contribute to CORPAFROAS, or compile their own corpus, without having to go through the complex preparatory theoretical and technical procedures that we have worked on.
