The Russian National Corpus is a representative collection of texts in Russian, counting more than 2 bln tokens and completed with linguistic annotation and search tools

We continue to develop the functionality of the corpus for teaching Russian in schools. Six new rules have been added to the Practice Example Generator:

• Verb tense
• Verb aspect
• The letters Ы and И after consonant prefixes
• Spelling of пре- and при- in prefixes and word roots
• Spelling of the suffixes -чик- and -щик-
• Spelling of -н- and -нн- in adjectives

The number of rules continues to grow, so for ease of navigation, the rules in the menu are now arranged in several thematic tabs.
We remind you that you can access the generator page from the RNC for school page by clicking on the corresponding banner.

The Middle Russian corpus has been expanded by almost 700,000 words. The corpus has been supplemented with Middle Russian texts from various genres, including chronicles (the Tver chronicles, the Ioasaf Chronicle, the Warsaw collection), a geographical description of the Tsardom of Moscow and neighboring states (The Book of the Great Map), as well as documents related to household and tax records from different regions.

The Spoken and Accentological corpora have been updated with new collections of oral speech. The additions include recordings of conversations and interviews with residents from various regions of Russia, featured in documentary films from the series "Letters from the Province" and in video blogs, as well as materials from folklore expeditions.

The corpora have also been expanded with monologue-style memoirs and everyday dialogic speech, including speech of young people, collected by students of the Voronezh State University, the Lomonosov Moscow State University, and the State University of Education (Prosvet). The total volume of this update amounts to approximately 180,000 tokens.

The Spoken Corpus now contains 15 million tokens, while the Accentological Corpus, including naive poetry, has reached a total of 135.9 million tokens.
