<p>There is a corpus-study of relativization in Turkish, indicating
respective frequencies of different relativized arguments (around
1000 relative constructions in total).</p>
<p>However, it's based on written language, a mix of journalistic,
literary and scientific texts.</p>
<p>The details are available in:</p>

<p>There have been corpus studies of relativization in Jakarta
Indonesian making use of the Max Planck Institute for
Evolutionary Anthropology Jakarta Field Station corpus. A link
to one reference is provided below. (There may be other
references, but I'm currently with a bad internet connection and

<div>We are looking for corpus studies of relativization in
adult speech that report frequencies of relativization on
different arguments. There seem to have been few since Fox
1987, most on English (some references below). Can anyone
refer us to other work? Especially needed are languages
with gap strategies and languages with ergativity, but all
references appreciated. We'll summarize.</div>
