The Wikicorpus contains portions of the Catalan, Spanish, and English Wikipedias based on a 2006 dump. The corpora have been automatically tagged with lemma and part of speech information using the open source library FreeLing. Also, they have been WordNet-sense annotated with the state of the art Word Sense Disambiguation algorithm UKB. In its current version, the corpora have the following sizes: * Catalan: around 50 million words * Spanish: around 120 million words * English: around 600 million words We provide access to the corpora in their raw text and tagged versions, under the same license as Wikipedia itself. To our knowledge, these are the largest Catalan and Spanish corpora freely available for download.
