[Corpora-List] Syntactically annotated corpus of a, Spanish Dialect such as Buenos Aires or Los Angeles

["José M. García-Miguel"]

You might also try the search form of ADESSE 
(http://adesse.uvigo.es/data/avanzado.php), with the following options:

Genero Textual = "Oral"
Procedencia="Hispanoamérica"

And in "Parámetros del argumento 1":

Función Sintáctica="Objeto"     (-->and also "cualquiera" / "directo" / 
"indirecto")
Categoría Sintáctica="Cualquiera (no vacío)"   or any specific category 
in the list ("FN"/ "ProPers"/ ...)
Concordancia/clítico= "Clítico objeto"  [for doubling, for ex: "va a 
buscarlo al soldadito"], or
Concordancia/clitico= "Ninguno (nulo)" [for not doubling; for ex: "se 
queda a buscar a Pedro Páramo"]

This gives you the examples of doubling / not doubling from the Buenos 
Aires part of Habla Culta corpus.
The form gives you several options to refine your search, but, for the 
moment, not all the possibilities imaginable from the original database 
are available (in the future, I hope they will be).

ADESSE is a semantically enlarged version of BDS, a syntactic database 
of 160 thousand Spanish clauses build on the Arthus corpus (1,5 million 
words). The oral part of this corpus comprises the Madrid, Sevilla, and 
Buenos Aires texts from the Norma Culta corpus. This is why in this case 
a search over "Género textual = oral" and "Procedencia=Hispanoamérica" 
is equivalent to a search over Buenos Aires.

> FYI, the Corpus del Espanol is 100 million words in size, including 20 million from the 1900s. For the 1900s, it is equally balanced between spoken, fiction, newspaper, and academic, which means that you can do nice cross-genre comparisons. Since it has texts from earlier centuries as well (e.g. 20 million words from the 1800s), you can look at the historical development of the construction as well. Finally, because the spoken has the entire Habla Culta corpus, you can do nice comparisons across different dialects.
