The RapCor is a small specialized corpus for the French language. It is developed at the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures of the Faculty of Arts, Masaryk University in Brno, under the supervision of Alena Podhorná-Polická (associate professor).
It is a corpus of spoken French in rap songs designed for the purposes of socio-lexical research. The specific nature of rap texts allows a wider understanding of substandard French, particularly the dynamics of the development of generational and ethno-socio-geographically conditioned word-formation and neology in relation to lexicography. This corpus can also serve those interested in modern poetry or sociolinguistics (especially in relation to multi-ethnic suburbs).
