PoLKo - the Polish Learner Corpus

PoLKo is an academic project. The primary goal of the project is to collect learners’ writings in Polish as a foreign language at various levels of language proficiency. The collected material will be a basis for analysing the learners’ language, identifying the most common language errors, creating classroom materials, and improving modern teaching methods.

In the first step, we are collecting all available electronic texts, so as to gather a sizeable amount of starting material in the shortest possible time. In the second step, we intend to focus more on hand-written texts and the rules for transcribing such texts in a computer-readable format, and on balancing the entire corpus in terms of first language and language level (CEFR).
