Perhaps the oldest Latin American electronic corpus is the Corpus del español mexicano contemporáneo (CEMC), which was compiled in the seventies for lexicographical purposes. Since then, numerous corpora have appeared in Mexico for very diverse language technologies, like speech recognition, speech synthesis, text mining applications, etc., and for the study of linguistic phenomena in the synchronic and diachronic dimensions. In this talk, several prominent text corpora projects will be described. We will briefly examine their objectives, focused language, structure, tools and resources, context of apparition, and their applications, among other features.
