Humcor<\/strong><\/span> (Multimodal Oral Humor Corpus in Spanish)<\/em> is an online corpus specifically designed for the study of humor in Spanish. It is a database of humorous texts that include genres such as jokes, monologues, sketches, and ventriloquists, in two main modalities (visual and auditory), sourced from television and radio programs, as well as various media formats such as vinyl records, phonograph records, and cassette tapes.<\/p>\n

The television and radio materials have been obtained from online historical archives, personal recordings, and content platforms. As for the physical formats, these have been located in private collections, libraries, second-hand marketplaces, and digital platforms. Additionally, the documentation process has involved consulting catalogs of records from different periods, bibliographic archives, old newspapers and magazines, as well as specialized websites.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The Humcor<\/strong><\/span> project, developed at the University of Granada under the direction of Doina Repede<\/a>, includes materials from all decades since 1900 and spans a period of 125 years (1900-2025). It also offers a broad and diverse representation of the varieties of Spanish, both from Spain and different regions of Latin America. The goal of Humcor<\/strong><\/span> is to analyze and document oral humor in Spanish through humorous discourse from both professionals and amateurs. This allows for a deeper study of the linguistic, cultural, and social characteristics of humor in the different varieties of Spanish. Additionally, the corpus facilitates research on the differences in the use of humor between men and women in different regions of Spain and America.<\/p>\n

Humcor<\/span> <\/strong>can be accessed through the corpus<\/a> search. The list of programs and comedians can be found here<\/a>, and the transcription rules and tagging system are explained in this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
