~~NOTOC~~
====== InterCorp: Release 3 ======

InterCorp is a large parallel synchronic corpus covering a number of languages. The corpus is compiled mostly by teachers and students of the Faculty of Arts, Charles University in Prague, and by other collaborators of the ICNC.

After registration [[http://korpus.cz/english/prohlaseni-aj.php|here]] the corpus can be searched using a web interface. The registration is valid for all ICNC corpora with public access. If you already have a user name and password for the Czech part of the Czech National Corpus, you do not need to register for the parallel corpus.

There are several aspects that make InterCorp special among the corpora published by ICNC:

  * InterCorp is accessible through [[http://www.korpus.cz/Park/|Park]], a purpose-built interface, using the corpus manager Manatee by Pavel Rychlý; a brief Park user manual is available [[en:park:navod|here]]; Park was written by Michal Štourač.
  * [[http://www.korpus.cz/corpora/intercorp/|Non-parallel]] versions of all InterCorp bitexts are available through a web-based version of the interface Bonito, so that its search and processing features (filter, sort, collocations, frequency distribution, random sampling, etc.) can be used also with texts from the parallel corpus. Czech texts included in the parallel corpus can also be used this way.
  * InterCorp is unique in yet another aspect. Unlike most other ICNC corpora which are static (unchanged in time), InterCorp is incremental with its size and the number of languages growing.

===== Texts in the corpus =====

The bulk of InterCorp consists of fiction in Czech and other languages, semi-automatically aligned, and a selection of political commentaries published by [[http://www.project-syndicate.org/|Project Syndicate]]. The currently available Czech, English, French, German, Russian and Spanish issues, dated 2000-2008, will be followed by more recent texts in future releases of the corpus. These texts have been aligned automatically: search results may include more misaligned segments.

Each texts has a Czech counterpart. As a result, Czech is the pivot language: for every text there is a single Czech version (original or translation), aligned with one or more foreign-language versions. The size of InterCorp for all languages is given in the following table, the Project Syndicate data being included in the counts with their size of approximately 1,5 - 2 million words for a given language (as of February 2011, in InterCorp v. 3, see [[http://www.korpus.cz/intercorp/?req=page:releaseNotes&lang=en|Version history]]).
