Abstract
This paper introduces Swiss-AL, a language data platform designed for the multilingual, comparative analysis of public discourse in Switzerland. Swiss-AL is an open research data resource providing browser-based access to a variety of corpora in all four of Switzerland’s official languages. Corpora contain journalistic, organisational, and parliamentary discourse. The platform supports research in applied linguistics as well as neighbouring disciplines (e.g., social sciences, communication and media studies).
