Description

Paris Stories is a corpus of oral French collected and transcribed by Linguistics students from Sorbonne Nouvelle and corrected by students from the Plurital Master’s Degree of Computational Linguistics ( Inalco, Paris Nanterre, Sorbonne Nouvelle) between 2017 and 2021. It contains monologues and dialogues from speakers living in the Parisian region.

For an assignment, students had to record a friend or a relative sharing an anecdote about a given theme (meaningful encounters, vacations, interesting stories..). The corpus was created for the study of contemporary spoken French and to train a syntactic parser for spoken French. All data has been morpho-syntactically annotated following the SUD (Surface Syntactic Universal Dependencies) guidelines.
