Corpus creation is the process of compiling and organizing a large collection of texts or spoken language samples for the purpose of linguistic analysis and research. Corpora can be created from a variety of sources, such as written texts, transcribed conversations, social media posts, and more. Researchers typically collect and annotate these texts in order to study patterns of language use, investigate linguistic phenomena, train natural language processing models, and more. Corpora are an essential resource for linguists, computational linguists, lexicographers, and other language researchers.
