In this paper we present a new parallel corpus for the Portuguese-English pair, CorTrad, which is a joint project of University of São Paulo and Linguateca.CorTrad offers several new functionalities for translation research, such as the comparison of different versions of the same translation, from first draft to published version, and the possibility of querying specific structural parts for each text genre.For the moment, CorTrad has a 315-page book on cooking and guest entertaining, a collection of Australian and Canadian short stories, and twenty issues (2001)(2002)(2003) of a Brazilian scientific news periodical.
