Swedish Blog Sentences (SBS)

For copyright reasons, the order of these sentences has been randomly rearranged so that the original texts can not be recreated. In many applications this is still very useful, and we publish this resource hoping that it will be of use to the field of Swedish Natural Language Processing. You may also be interested in other sets of sentences from Språkbanken.

The texts have been automatically lemmatized, annotated for part of speech and named entities by Stagger. In total, our data contains about 2.7 billion tokens, in over 220 million posts from 660 000 different blogs.
