The recordings have been made in the Eastern Cape in South Africa from 2015 onwards. The transcribed texts are annotated with morpheme-by-morpheme glosses, part-of-speech tags, and free English translations. The recordings and the annotations of Xhosa data have been made as part of three different research projects led by senior lecturer Eva-Marie Bloom Ström at the University of Gothenburg. All projects, including the ongoing ‘How do words get in order? The role of speaker-hearer interaction in languages of southern Africa’, were founded by the Swedish Research Council. The Corpus has been developed in collaboration with Språkbanken. A user guide and more extensive information about the corpus data can be found in the Corpus of Spoken isiXhosa Manual [PDF]. The abbreviations and conventions used in the annotation of the corpus are explained in the following protocol: Bloom Ström, E.-M., Slater, O., & Zahran, A. (2026).
