parlCymru: a dataset of spoken contributions from the Welsh Parliament

parlCymru intends to provide full-text vectors for all spoken contributions in the Senedd Cymru/Welsh Parliament (formerly National Assembly). This present version provides coverage of all recorded speeches of the Fifth Senedd from 2016-05-05 to 2021-05-05. Metadata includes the speaker, their party, gender, electoral district, the title of the debate and the date. Debates are identified by a unique id, as are members. A crosswalk to Wikidata for members is included for future integration with aggregate datasets of legislators and for easily pulling in additional variables. A dataset of Members of the Fifth Senedd is included, also providing Twitter handles. Text is available in both English and Cymraeg, with an additional variable for the language spoken in Parliament. Two files \"Corp_Senedd_en_V2.rds\" and Corp_Senedd_cy_V2.rds\" provides versions compatible with Rauh & Schwalbach's \"ParlSpeech V2\" dataset for comparative analyses. Full replication materials are available as a single R script.parlCymru 旨在为威尔士议会（Senedd Cymru，前身为国民议会）的所有口头发言提供全文向量。当前版本覆盖了2016年5月5日至2021年5月5日期间第五届威尔士议会的全部已记录发言。其元数据包含发言人、所属党派、性别、选举选区、辩论主题及发言日期。辩论与议员均通过唯一标识符进行区分。数据集附带议员到维基数据（Wikidata）的映射表，可用于未来与立法者汇总数据集的整合，并支持便捷引入额外变量。本次发布还附带第五届威尔士议会议员数据集，其中包含议员的Twitter账号信息。发言文本同时提供英语与威尔士语（Cymraeg）版本，并增设了议会发言所使用语言的变量字段。两份文件"Corp_Senedd_en_V2.rds"与"Corp_Senedd_cy_V2.rds"适配Rauh与Schwalbach提出的"ParlSpeech V2"数据集，可用于比较分析。完整的复现材料可通过单份R脚本获取。
