A Hindi-English Code-Switching Corpus

Anik Dey, Pascale Fung


Abstract
The aim of this paper is to investigate the rules and constraints of code-switching (CS) in Hindi-English mixed language data. In this paper, we’ll discuss how we collected the mixed language corpus. This corpus is primarily made up of student interview speech. The speech was manually transcribed and verified by bilingual speakers of Hindi and English. The code-switching cases in the corpus are discussed and the reasons for code-switching are explained.
