description
  • The Private Correspondence Corpus (KSK) provides the possibility to look into the language of contemporary private epistolary texts. The KSK, capturing handwritten correspondence, possibly in the last stage of its existence, contains electronic transcriptions of 2000 letters (that is 942 573 corpus positions) from 1990-2004. The selection of texts complies with the condition of a variety of idiolects, that is, it represents the language of 2000 different people. In the collected correspondence, there are writers from the entire Czech Republic, of all age and education categories, however the communication of young people is most accentuated as it is the best evidence of the contemporary development tendencies of Czech, transformations of the correspondence genre and written expression in general.
