鲁汶国际英语口语中介语数据库(LINDSEI)是教师和研究人员有兴趣从各种第一语言(L1)中了解更多口语学习者语言的重要资源。LINDSEI的工作始于1995年,目前仍在进行中。该项目由Sylviane格兰杰指导,并由Sylvie De Cock,Gaetanelle Gilquin和Stephanie Petch-Tyson协调,但它代表了LINDSEI代表的11个国家的40多名协调员和合作者的努力。LINDSEI目前包含超过100万个单词和130个小时的学习者(英语为L2的人)和面试官(在大多数情况下,英语为母语的人)之间的面试。访谈平均时长14分钟,字数近2,000字。学习者语言总共约792,000字,每次面试近1,500字。每一次采访都是逐字记录的。最低限度的韵律信息是以停顿(短,中,长),音节延长和元音的形式提供的。填充的停顿和反向通道出现在括号中,外来词被编码。由于在录音中包含了一个相对受限(因此不太真实)的任务,作者选择将LINDSEI描述为数据库而不是语料库。最重要的是,有一个任务,即图片描述任务,与访谈中的其他会话部分不同。LINDSEI包括的学习者是高中到高级水平的年轻成人EFL学习者。学员来自11个国家,包括保加利亚、中国、荷兰、法国、德国、希腊、意大利、日本、波兰、西班牙和瑞典,每个国家约有50名学员。在大多数情况下,
The Louvain International Database of Spoken English Interlanguage (LINDSEI) is an important resource for teachers and researchers interested in learning more about spoken learner language from a variety of first languages (L1 s). Work began on LINDSEI in 1995 and is ongoing. The project is directed by Sylviane Granger and co-ordinated by Sylvie De Cock, Gaetanelle Gilquin and Stephanie Petch-Tyson, but it represents the efforts of over forty co-ordinators and collaborators in the eleven countries represented in LINDSEI. LINDSEI currently contains over 1 million words and 130 hours of interviews between learners (L2 speakers of English) and interviewers (in most cases, a native speaker of English). The interviews are, on average, fourteen minutes long and consist of nearly 2,000 words. Learner language represents approximately 792,000 words in total and nearly 1,500 words per interview. Each interview is transcribed orthographically. Minimal prosodic information is provided in the form of pauses (short, medium and long), syllable lengthening, and vowels used in article pronunciation. Filled pauses and backchannels appear in brackets, and foreign words are coded. Due to the inclusion of a relatively constrained (and, thus, less authentic) task in the recordings, the authors choose to describe LINDSEI as a database rather than a corpus. Most importantly, one task, a picture description task, is distinct from the other conversational portions of the interviews. The learners included in LINDSEI are young adult EFL learners of high-intermediate to advanced proficiency. Eleven nationalities are represented, including Bulgarian, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Spanish and Swedish, with approximately fifty learners representing each nationality. In most cases, the L1 background of
