[Corpora-List] German corpora

[Adam Kilgarriff]

Jaime,

DeWaC is a 2 billion word German corpus derived from the web.  Web genres
like blogs have speech-like features, and it's big, so it may have many of
the things you are looking for.  It's available in the Sketch Engine at
http://www.sketchengine.co.uk (where you can sign up for a free trial)

Best

Adam Kilgarriff
