Every SYN corpus contains all the synchronic written corpora of the SYN series published up until the time of the given version's publication. The corpus SYN version 3 therefore contains the corpora SYN2000, SYN2005, SYN2006PUB, SYN2009PUB, SYN2010 and SYN2013PUB.
Because all of these corpora are disjunctive (i.e. they do not contain the same texts), the total size of the SYN version 3 is given by their sum, which makes 2,232 billion words (tokens without punctuation). The SYN corpus is not representative; the dominant component is journalism, which is the result of the predominance of journalistic corpora SYN2006PUB, SYN2009PUB and SYN2013PUB.
The SYN version 3 corpus is referential,and will remain accessible to users even after newer versions have been published. It is however necessary to keep in mind that the linguistic information will become outdated, as a natural result of the referential nature of the corpus.
