The Swiss Web Corpus for Applied Linguistics (Swiss-AL) corpus. It is the largest multilingual corpus in Switzerland and includes texts from over 350 relevant actors in public communication. It currently contains 8 million texts, including news items, specialist publications and parliamentary minutes, websites of political parties, companies and universities, statements by business associations and NGOs. Flexible data processing enables data-supported and data-driven analysis options on social and political discourses. The Swiss-AL corpus is available for research here.
