Dear all,
We are glad to inform you that a new English learner corpus called the International Corpus of Crosslinguistic Interlanguage (ICCI) has been completed and made publicly available. The ICCI consists of 9,000 essays (20 min. in-class tasks without the use of a dictionary) written by novice to lower-intermediate level learners of English , sampled from eight countries and regions (Austria, China, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan, Poland, Spain, and Taiwan).
Our web query system is available at the following URL:

You can also download the entire corpus data and the metadata file once you

We hope you will find the resources useful.
We will also provide the introductory workshop (instructors: Huaqing Hong at NTU, Singapore and me) at TaLC10 in Warsaw as a part of the pre-conference workshop sessions on the 11th of July.
Best regards,
