Murrinhpatha Morpho-Corpus

The Murrinhpatha Morpho-Corpus is a 100,000-word corpus of morphologically annotated, spontaneous and elicited Murrinhpatha speech. It is one of the largest morphologically annotated corpora for any polysynthetic language.

Original language data for the corpus was collected by John Mansfield, Chester Street, Joe Blythe and Rachel Nordligner. The corpus database was developed by John Mansfield.

Development of the corpus was funded by the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Dynamics of Language (University of Melbourne node). The corpus forms part of the centre's wider corpus development initiative for languages of the Pacific region.
