Abstract

The paper offers the first full description of the Tomsk Dialect Corpus – an electronic resource based on recordings of the Russian dialect speech of the Tomsk and Kemerovo regions (West Siberia), which has been collected since 1946. The corpus counts 3,350,272 tokens, which makes it the largest electronic collection of dialect speech in Russia. The originality of this resource consists in the uniqueness of the materials collected and their multifaceted annotation. Topic and pragmatic annotations were created manually. Topic annotation is available for the whole data, whereas pragmatic annotation is available for 45,445 speech acts. Grammatical annotation was performed automatically with the PhpMorphy parser, with additional manual correction for some dialect words. Metalinguistic annotation includes the recording’s year and place, and the speakers’ age, gender, and educational level. All annotated parameters are searchable. The corpus also includes a lexicographic component, i.e. definitions of dialect lexemes.

Notes

  1. Daniel et al. (2013–2018), Garder et al. (2018), Ter-Avanesova et al. (2018, 2019), Ron’ko et al. (2019), Ter-Avanesova et al.

  2. Note that some of these features are typical of Standard Russian too. However, they are not typical of other Russian dialects, so they can be considered as distinctive features of the Middle Ob region dialect.

  3. During all stages of fieldwork the speakers were asked for their oral consent to be recorded (written consent is not required according to the Russian law).

  4. This term refers to non-standard spelling, which is inconsistently used in the manuscripts. In some cases, only dialect phonetic features are reflected, but sometimes some standard features (e.g. akanje) are included too.

  5. Here and below tables include unknown data, i.e. data for which the relevant information is missing.

  6. Here and below by “text” we mean the transcript of one recording of a conversation with one or more speakers.

  7. It should be noted that topics might overlap in one text, so some tokens were counted more than once, which is why the total amount of the data annotated by topic is more than 3.3 million.
