Orfeo is a portal which gives access to the Corpus for the Study of
Contemporary French: (CEFC). The corpus consists of 10 M. words:

- 4 million words from spoken French transcriptions of about 350 hours of
recordings, collected in France, Switzerland and Belgium and in different
diaphasic situations (face-to-face conversations; interviews, debates, and
classroom interactions; lectures, sermons, and speeches, as well as radio and
television programs).

- 6 million words of written texts from a wide range of genres (e.g.
literature, scientific texts, regional and national press, essays, academic,
non-standard writings).
 

- CEFC is freely available on the portal :

https://www.ortolang.fr/market/corpora/cefc-orfeo   

- The portal gives access to the acoustic files and textual resources. The
corpus is searchable for textual and register variables available from the
metadata, as well as for lexical and morpho-syntactic (POS) annotations. The
entire corpus is semi-automatically annotated with syntactic dependencies. The
search tool can return dependencies patterns. All the queries return
orthographic transcriptions aligned with audio files. Guides are provided for
all types of annotations. All files: texts, sounds and annotations are freely
downloadable.
