Abstract
This contribution aims to provide a representative sample of Slovak colloquial language in an organized corpus. The corpus makes it possible to study spontaneous, interactive communication that often includes various incorrect or unusual words. The corpus includes a complete set of web discussions about various topics from a single site. Each discussion is marked with a topic and talking person and is assigned to a specific section. The corpus includes an index for easy searching using regular expressions. Text of the discussions is processed with our tools for word tokenization, sentence boundary detection and morphological analysis. Token annotations include a correct word, proposed by a statistical correction system.
