CEPLEXicon

CEPLEXicon is a lexicon based on two different corpora of child speech – Santos corpus (Santos, 2006, Santos et al., 2014, see http://www.clul.ul.pt/resources/546?lang=en) and Freitas corpus (Freitas, 1997, Freitas et al. 2012). This lexicon results from the automatic tagging of the two corpora, using a tagger and the POS tag set produced in the research unit ANAGRAMA (Centro de Linguística da Universidade de Lisboa - CLUL) (Généreux, Hendrickx & Mendes, 2012). The automatic tagging was followed by a partial manual revision (as described in the manual).<p><p>This lexicon covers all the speech produced by seven monolingual Portuguese children aged 1;02.00 to 3;11.12, in a total of 114 files, each corresponding to 40-50 minutes of child-adult interaction in a naturalistic setting. The lexicon is presented in .xls format and includes 2201 lemmas, the number of occurrences of each lemma in three different age periods (<2 years of age; &#8805; 2 and < 3 years of age; &#8805; 3 years of age), frequency of the lemma in each period and age of first occurrence for each child.<p><p>CEPLEXicon was developed at ANAGRAMA (CLUL, Faculdade de Letras da Universidade de Lisboa), under the project Complement Clauses in the Acquisition of Portuguese (PTDC/CLE-LIN/120897/2010), funded by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia.
