| ### Dataset Summary | |
| The Catalan Textual Corpus is a 1760-million-token web corpus of Catalan built from several sources: existing corpus such as DOGC, CaWac (non-dedup version), Oscar (unshuffled version), Open Subtitles, Catalan Wikipedia; and three brand new crawlings: the Catalan General Crawling, obtained by crawling the 500 most popular .cat and .ad domains; the Catalan Government Crawling, obtained by crawling the .gencat domain and subdomains, belonging to the Catalan Government; and the ACN corpus with 220k news items from March 2015 until October 2020, crawled from the Catalan News Agency. | |
| It consists of 1.758.388.896 tokens, 73.172.152 sentences and 12.556.365 documents. Documents are separated by single new lines. These boundaries have been preserved as long as the license allowed it. | |
