The International Corpus of English (ICE) began in 1990 with the primary aim of collecting material for comparative studies of English worldwide. Twenty research teams around the world are preparing electronic corpora of their own national or regional variety of English. Each ICE corpus consists of one million words of spoken and written English produced after 1989. For most participating countries, the ICE project is stimulating the first systematic investigation of the national variety. To ensure compatibility among the component corpora, each team is following a common corpus design, as well as a common scheme for grammatical annotation. News February 2010 I am very pleased to announce the release of the ICE Canada corpus. The next ICE Workshop will be held in Giessen, Germany, on Wednesday, 26 May 2010. The ICELite Project has now been successfully completed, thanks to funding from the Arts Faculty, the Chinese University of Hong Kong. A report on the project was presented during the ICE Workshop in Cebu, and is available here. The ICE Jamaica corpus is now available to download under licence from this site.
