Bergen Corpus of London Teenage Language

The Bergen Corpus of London Teenage Language (COLT) is a data set of samples of spoken English that was compiled in 1993 from tape recorded and transcribed conversations by teens between the ages of 13 and 17 in London schools.[1][2] This corpus, which has been tagged for part of speech using the CLAWS 6 tagset, is one of the linguistic research projects housed at the University of Bergen in Norway[3]. Linguistic analysis based on this corpus material has appeared in the book Trends in Teenage Talk[4] and later journal articles.[5][6]
