La construcción de un corpus de habla pública de Chile. Criterios y procedimientos para la selección de una muestra representativa

Abstract

For carrying out the research “Recurrent prosodic patterns in Chile the speech acts of Chile public speech: phonophonological description”, it was necessary to build a corpus showing manifestations of such acts in different communicative situations. In this paper we, firstly, describe the procedures undertaken to build the corpus; secondly, those criteria underlying the sample selection are defined and, finally the labelling procedures are described. The objective of this paper is, then, to account for the process of corpus collection and to propose a holistic labelling that duly contains for all the components that distinctly identify each of the communicative instances that make up our corpus.
