Introduction

CALLHOME Spanish Lexicon was developed by the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) and contains 45,582 Spanish words with morphological, phonological, stress and frequency information derived from 80 transcripts representing unscripted telephone conversations between native Spanish speakers contained in CALLHOME Spanish Transcripts (LDC96T17) and from various Spanish news texts.

The CALLHOME series consists of telephone conversations, transcripts and lexicons developed by LDC and Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, in support of research in speaker identification, language identification and related technologies. Languages in the series include American English, Egyptian Arabic, German, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, and Spanish.

Data

The lexicon contains nine tab-separated information fields: (1) headword: orthographic form; (2) morph: morphological analysis of the headword; (3) pron: pronunciation of the headword; (4) stress: primary stress information of the word; (5) callh freq: frequency of the headword in CALLHOME transcripts; (6) madrid freq: frequency of the headword in Madrid Radio transcripts; (7) ap freq: frequency of the headword in Associated Press newswire; (8) reut freq: frequency of the headword in Reuters newswire; and (9) norte freq: frequency of the headword in El Norte newswire.

Corresponding transcripts (LDC96T17) and the telephone speech dataset (LDC96S35) are available separately.
