French Digital Discourse and online corpus consultation/analysis

Résumé

This poster provides an overview of the vast French text-message 88milSMS corpus (Panckhurst et al. 2014) via online platforms where it has been deposited and is freely accessible for downloading (HumaNum[1], Ortolang[2]) and direct online consultation and analysis (SketchEngine[3]). The corpus is searchable from at least four scientific sources: CLARIN VLO[4], ELRA catalogue[5], GGF[6], Isidore[7]. Long-term archiving at the National Computing Center for Higher Education (CINES[8]) is an important future possibility for corpus preservation. Previous publications describe the international SMS project sms4science (Fairon et al. 2006, Cougnon 2015, Cougnon and Fairon 2014) and sub-project sud4science (Panckhurst et al. 2020), including Natural Language Processing (NLP) aspects (Patel et al., 2013[9]) related to French Digital Discourse (Panckhurst et al., 2023). The vast 88milSMS corpus respects FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Re-usability) Open Data and Open Science principles (Panckhurst and Frontini 2021), well-known in the NLP community. It was recently integrated onto the SketchEngine platform, and was Part-of-Speech (POS) tagged using FreeLing[10]. Complex emoji (Thurlow et al. 2020) encoding was also provided. The corpus can now therefore be directly consulted online — without prior mandatory downloading — allowing usage of typical NLP and corpus linguistics tools for qualitative and quantitative analyses. This poster highlights varying queries using 88milSMS on SketchEngine, for academics, researchers, students and members of the general public, thus guiding usage and conveying further knowledge on continually evolving digital textuality.
