Peredur Davies Lecture - 27 October 2011

Dr Peredur Davies of the School of Linguistics & English Language at Bangor University giving a talk for Bangor Linguistics Society's lecture series "Approaches to Language" on 27 October 2011.

AS REAL AS IT GETS: ANALYSING LINGUISTIC SPEECH CORPORA

"In this talk I will discuss a number of corpora (sg. corpus) of recorded and transcribed conversations between bilinguals that have been collected by researchers at Bangor University in the past few years. I will be discussing the benefits and issues involved with collecting such corpora, before going on to present research I (and others) have undertaken using data from such corpora, specifically with relation to Welsh and the speech of Welsh-English bilinguals. There will then be a workshop session on how to access and use the Siarad corpus of Welsh-English bilinguals' speech."
