UW with free access to Sketch Engine

30 06 2020

Students, doctoral candidates, and employees of the University of Warsaw can use the Sketch Engine corpus management platform for free. This has been made possible thanks to the efforts of the POB IV “The Humanities: Crossing Borders, Extending Capabilities” team, carried out as part of the IDUB project.

Thanks to the efforts of the POB IV team, the University of Warsaw has joined almost 400 other European universities that have gained access to the resources and tools of the Sketch Engine corpus management platform, sponsored by the European ELEXIS project.

Sketch Engine is currently one of the most comprehensive and popular programs in the world, offering access to a large number of text collections (corpora) in over 90 languages, as well as advanced tools for searching and analysing them. It gives users the opportunity to create and explore their own language resources. The Sketch Engine can be used for scientific research, but also has numerous practical applications for teaching and learning languages, translation, and lexicography.
