The International Corpus of Learner Finnish (ICLFI) is a corpus of written learner language. The corpus mostly consists of raw texts, but certain subcorpora (e.g. texts produced by Estonian, Russian, Dutch, and Swedish learners) are already linguistically annotated. The error-tagging process begins 2013. The texts have been written by students of Finnish as a foreign language from various language backgrounds. They have been compiled with the help of Finnish language teachers around the world.The corpus contains texts written by basic, independent, and proficient learners of Finnish, and the texts are analyzed according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). The ICLFI comprises a variety of both non-fictional (e.g. essays, argumentative texts) and fictional texts (e.g. narratives, letters). In addition, the corpus provides information on a large number of variables concerning the linguistic background of the learner, the learning task, the learning context, etc.Download location: http://www.oulu.fi/suomitoisenakielena/node/16078.The corpus will be published also at https://korp.csc.fi/.The purpose of the resource use must be outlined in a research plan.Distribution of copies is not allowed.
