The HunLearner Corpus
Introduction
HunLearner is a learners' corpus of Hungarian. We collected written data from 35 students majoring in Hungarian studies at the University of Zagreb, Croatia. Texts were morphologically and syntactically analyzed by the magyarlanc tool.
Texts include essays on the difficulties of learning Hungarian, compositions on a friendly person and ficticious letters written by a Hungarian immigrant from England.
