Description

ONOMASTICA is a database containing original data from the Norwegian part of the ONOMASTICA project, a European research project aiming at producing pronunciation lexica of proper names for various European languages. The data include first names, family names, company names, street names, place names and foreign names.

The database contains a total of 556,499 transcribed names. The data was automatically transcribed, but partially checked manually by trained phoneticians. The material is transcribed using SAMPA. See the documentation files for details.

The database is published with permission from Telenor, and may be used freely and distributed without compensation. Telenor must be credited when the database is used or distributed.

Note that an updated and more user-frendly version of the database in csv format has been published by the Language Bank. Type "sbr-67" in the search bar to find the updated version.
