339Querying spoken language data
Elena Frick, Thomas Schmidt · 2025
This chapter is about query mechanisms for spoken language corpora as used in different fields of linguistics.After discussing properties specific to this type of data and setting it apart from written language (see Evert et al. 2025), an overview of existing technology and approaches to standardisation for querying spoken language data is provided.The chapter concludes by illustrating some of the concepts in more detail using the FOLK corpus in the ZuMult platform as an example.
