Abstract

This data statement of the Public DGS Corpus provides information relevant to judging the nature of the language content of the corpus. It covers how the corpus was curated, specifies the language varieties it covers, and provides demographic information for participants and annotators. It also describes the technical and sociological conditions under which the language data was recorded as well as its topical characteristics. The data statement provides a general overview, supported by references to a variety of publications that cover individual topics in more detail.
