RFERL corpora

From Apertium

Radio Free Europe / Radio Liberty runs news services in a number of Central Asian languages. The information is essentially free for public use with attribution.

We discovered how a corpus could be built from their website, and have begun to build a few. Currently we have corpora for Kazakh and Kyrgyz, covering only a couple years' worth of articles.

Contents 1 Kyrgyz 1.1 2009 1.2 2010 2 Kazakh 2.1 2009 2.2 2010
