This paper presents the potential uses of the first version of the Arabic Learner Corpus (ALC), which comprises a collection of texts written by learners of Arabic in Saudi Arabia. The original source of the corpus (hand-written sheets) is available online alongside with their transcription (plain text format) 1 . The corpus is also intended to be lemmatised and annotated with linguistic features, including Part-of-Speech and grammatical functions tags, and mark-up of errors with their corrections.
