Spoken Arabic Corpora

This spoken Arabic corpus is the result of a long experience in the field of corpora (interviews in Moroccan Arabic in the 70's, radio broadcasts records of Modern Arabic in the 80's).
It has the following characteristics:
- comparable material of the year 1990.
- newscasts of the radio broadcast.
- data from three countries in which language use seems to differ (Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Algeria).

All the material was transcribed and tagged. The corpus gathers approximately 320,000 words (80,000 per country, plus a control corpus).
