Database oriented studies of Swedish child language development

The 50 computerized transcription files contained in this first release of the Swedish corpus relate to the project 'Database oriented studies of Swedish child language development', in which the language development in four monolingual Swedish children is analysed. The four children under study grow up in middle-class families on the west coast of Sweden. The families speak standard Swedish with a modest touch of the regional variant. The recorded material relates to a wide range of activity types: everyday activities in the home (such as meals, bedtime procedures, cooking, washing, etc.); free play; story telling; as well as adult-child interaction; child-child interaction; and soliloquy.
