Language Commons Language Corpora

"The Language Commons is an international consortium that is creating a large collection of written and spoken language material, made available under open licenses. The content includes text and speech corpora, along with translations, lexicons and other linguistic resources that support large-scale investigation of the world's languages. Members of the consortium include academic, industrial, and government organizations in many countries." The archive is in early stages of development. Materials can be accessed or contributed online, and are searchable by collection, media type, linguistic topic, or keyword.
