SACODEYL

SACODEYL is a web based system for the assisted compilation and open distribution of European teen talk in the context of language education.

The project includes the collection and distribution of English, French, German, Italian, Lithuanian, Romanian, and Spanish teen talk. SACODEYL sees itself as a pedagogical mediator in the language learning process of young Europeans, exploiting web multimedia resources to deliver learning experiences based on data driven, constructivist approaches to language acquisition.

The SACODEYL corpora are made available as a free-of-charge resource on their website by the SACODEYL project consortium. They may be used for education and research purposes only. Copies of the transcripts may be distributed, as long as this statement of availability appears in the transcripts.
