EFFE-ON - corpus of writing and speech

Abstract

In this article, we present a new corpus of writing and speech of children (Portuguese L1) in the early years of schooling: EFFE-On. Its content is available online for research, addressing mainly teachers, linguists and speech therapists. The EFFE-On was developed within the project “Do you write as you speak - Do you speak as you write?” in the Linguistic Centre of the University of Lisbon. Among other applications, the corpus enables: the identification of unconventional spellings; the comparison of unconventional spellings and their corresponding pronunciations; the assistance of the development and adaptation of educational and therapeutic materials; the study of phonological, morphological, syntactic, discursive and other aspects related to the text produced by children
