ELSNET Italian Corpus Sample

The sample of the corpus to be distributed within the framework of the ELSNET action and tagged according to the EAGLES recommendations (Monachini and Calzolari 1995) has been selected from a subset of the Italian Reference Corpus - henceforth IRC - (Bindi Monachini Orsolini 1991), available at ILC - Pisa. Selection parameters have been taken into account in order to extract the material from this subset of the IRC, which has 3.5 M of occurrences for distribution (Bindi, Monachini, Orsolini 1992).
