Popis: In this paper,we present different resources for the study of spoken Brazilian Portuguese, developed within the C-ORAL-BRASIL project. The C-ORAL-BRASIL stemmed from the European C-ORAL-ROM project (Cresti andMoneglia, 2005), which has compiled spoken corpora of Italian, French, Spanish, and European Portuguese. The corpora of the C-ORAL family represent adequate tools for the analysis of spoken language, for they are provided not only with the transcripts of the recorded sessions (with prosodic breaks’ annotation), but also with their audio files and the text-to-speech alignment (withthe WinPitch software: Martin, 2003). So far, the C-ORAL-BRASIL project has published the C-ORAL-BRASIL I (Informal corpus: Raso andMello, 2012), while the C-ORAL-BRASIL II (to be published) comprises a Formal corpus (Natural context), a Media corpus, and a Telephonic corpus. Besides these resources, a set of informationally tagged comparable minicorpora (representative samples of the aforementioned corpora) are already available or in preparation, enabling (cross-linguistic) studies focusedon information structureand its interfaces.
