L2FOC: a crosslinguistic speech corpus for French and Italian Second Language Acquisition

The corpus includes recordings from 65 speakers across four groups (L1/L2 Italian and French), collected through three tasks eliciting speech with a ranging degree of spontaneity. Recordings were made with laboratory equipment and are accompanied by orthographic transcriptions and multi-tier phonetic and phonological alignment. The corpus enables fine-grained analysis of how information structure is encoded across languages and proficiency levels, and supports applications in both theoretical linguistics and speech technology.
