 +====== The CzeSL-plain corpus ====== 
 + 
 +The learner corpus **CzeSL-plain** (**Cz**ech as a **S**econd **L**anguage, plain = without annotation) is one of the results of the project //Innovation of Education in the Field of Czech as a Second Language//, a part of the operational program //Education for Competitiveness//, funded by the EU Structural Funds (ESF) and the Czech government. 
 + 
 +The institutions involved in the creation of the corpus include: //Technical University of Liberec// as the beneficiary of the support, //Charles University in Prague// and //The Association of Teachers of Czech as a Foreign Language// as partners, as well as a number of elementary schools and high schools, civic associations, NGOs and other institutions as well as individual collaborators. 
 + 
 +The corpus contains a total of about 2.3 million tokens (revised version 2; for more details see the table below). The revision was caused by presence of several tens of Czech pupils' essays in //ciz// part included by mistake. The original version 1 can be made available upon request. The corpus includes three subcorpora marked as three text types: 
 + 
 +  * **ciz** – transcripts of essays written by non-native speakers in language teaching classes of various types and levels; 
 +  * **kval** – academic texts obtained from non-native speakers of Czech studying at Czech universities in Masters or doctoral programmes; 
 +  * **rom** – transcripts of texts written at school by pupils and students with Romani background in communities endangered by social exclusion. 
 + 
 +The corpus does not include any other data about the author or about the text itself. 
 + 
 +The texts in all the three groups were produced by speakers who have not (yet) acquired the Czech linguistic skills of an adult native speaker. As an acquisition corpus the texts may serve both for research in the field of learning and teaching and for practical educational purposes. The first two datasets concern Czech as a second/foreign language, constituting an L2 acquisition (learner) subcorpus, while the third dataset is a subcorpus focusing on L1 acquisition (Czech is not considered to be a foreign language for students with Romani background monitored in this project). This is the very first publicly available corpus of this type for Czech. 
 + 
 +The texts were collected in 2009–2012 mostly in schools, i.e. in a formal environment, and included in the corpus with the consent of the relevant institutions and individuals. 
 + 
 +The essays and handwritten school exams were collected as manuscripts, scanned and transcribed into an electronic form. Academic texts by non-native speakers were obtained from the authors already in an electronic form. While these texts were not written in a class or with the aim to be included in a corpus, their final form may have been affected by an automatic spellchecker. 
 + 
 + 
 +Texts of non-native speakers (the **ciz** part), extended by some newer texts, are available as the [[cnk:czesl-sgt]] corpus, together with metadata and automatically performed morphosyntactic and error annotation, including the identification of incorrect forms. The **CzeSL-plain** corpus is also available from the LINDAT-Clarin repository as [[https://lindat.mff.cuni.cz|LINDAT-Clarin]] as [[http://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-097C-0000-000C-2112-B|AKCES 3]] and [[http://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-097C-0000-000C-2293-0|AKCES4]]. See also [[http://utkl.ff.cuni.cz/learncorp/|CzeSL – a Learner Corpus of Czech]]. 
 + 
 +The number of characters in the corpus is somewhat higher than in the original texts because of codes used in the transcription of the manuscripts and the encoding of some foreign and non-standard characters. For example, the string … represents omission (...), //&priv;// indicates anonymization (of a proper name), //&img;// indicates the place, where there was a picture in the manuscript, //&unclear;// stands for an unrecognized word or passage, //&rdot;// is a string indicating the characterr with a dot above etc.
