LIVAC Synchronous Corpus

The LIVAC contains texts from Chinese newspapers and electronic media of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Beijing, Shanghai, Macau and Singapore. The materials from the diverse communities have been synchronized. In 2005 the corpus was composed of over 150 million Chinese characters and over 720,000 word types. It is still expanding.
The analysis concerns various linguistic units (characters, words, sentences).

The collection has been automatically segmented (with a manual verification). A lexical database is derived from the segmented texts.

LIVAC stands for Linguistic Variations in Chinese Speech Communities.
