The TAUS Corpus has 86 speakers and 387 551 tokens.The informants are mainly from two eastern neighborhoods (Vålerenga and Kampen) and one western neighborhood (Frogner), and have a social background that can be considered representative with respect to education, occupation and place of adolescence. The informants fall into three groups based on age: youths (15 - 17 years), young adults (20 - 30), and adults (34 - 75).

The TAUS Corpus uses the search tool Glossa, developed by the Text Laboratory.
