The Aranea Project is targeted at creation of a family of Gigaword web-corpora for a dozen of languages that could be used for teaching language- and linguistics-related subjects at Slovak universities, as well as for research purposes in various areas of linguistics. All corpora are being built according to a standard methodology and using the same set of tools for processing and annotation, which ― together with their standard size and― makes them also a valuable resource for translators and contrastive studies. All our corpora are freely available either via a web interface or in a source form in an annotated vertical format.
