Accessible DARDOSIPCAT Audios

Welcome to the Accessible DARDOSIPCAT Audios collection!

This area of the archive houses DARDOSIPCAT audio recordings that are not currently under embargo. Accessible DARDOSIPCAT Audios belong to two separate corpora (Vann Corpus 1995 and Vann Corpus 2017). The 1995 corpus includes recordings of initial linguistic interviews with individuals who, in 1995, were members of two distinct, naturally-occurring social networks in Barcelona. These individuals belong to the first generation of Catalans ever educated in their heritage language to grow up in a democratic Spain. The 2017 corpus contains recordings of longitudinal interviews with individuals from both of the 1995 social networks.
