[Important] Notice of Corpus Name Change
The National Institute for Japanese Language and Linguistics (NINJAL) is currently developing the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese, Part 2" (BCCWJ2) as an extension of the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese" (BCCWJ).
As part of this project, the corpus that has previously been released as the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese" (BCCWJ) has been renamed the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese, Part 1" (BCCWJ1).
This page provides information on the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese, Part 1" (BCCWJ1). Information on the "Balanced Corpus of Contemporary Written Japanese, Part 2" (BCCWJ2) is provided separately and is not included on this page.
