Dear Info-CHILDES,
  I am happy to announce the addition to CHILDES of a new corpus from Mireia
Llinas-Grau of Barcelone and Ana Isabel Ojeo of Oveido.  The corpus includes
files from three children
1.  Jordina, a Catalan girl, from 1;7 - 2;10. These files are in
/romance/catalan/jordina
2.  Yasmin, a trilingual girl from Barcelona from 1;10 to 2;9.  Although the
bulk of the sentences are in Castillian, there are heavy influences
throughout from Catalan and English, so these data are in /bilingual/yasmin
3.  Irene, as Asturian girl, from 0;11 to 3.2.  These data are in
/romance/spanish/irene

The emphasis in the project was on the early development of grammatical
categories.  The documentation file will also be divided across these three
directories.

Many thanks to Mireia and Ana for this nice corpus.
