# Dataset Card for Folketinget

## Dataset Description

<!-- START-SHORT DESCRIPTION -->
Records from all meetings of The Danish parliament (Folketinget) in the parliament hall. 
<!-- END-SHORT DESCRIPTION -->


All records have a transcript produced by commercial Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) followed by postediting by linguists employed by Folketinget for intelligibility, i.e., edit out dysfluencies, restarts, repairs, and mistakes. The transcript is, therefore, not a representation of spoken Danish but rather information content.

In the parliament hall, one speaker at a time addresses members of the parliament. Monologues may include rebuttals or other comments to statements in previous monologues. While speakers can read aloud from a prepared statement or speak extemporaneously, we expect no difference to be apparent in the data because of the post-editing. The Folketinget section covers parliament hall sessions between 2009 and 2019. It contains discussions on a wide range of topics, issues, and named entities relevant to Danish society.
