+== Building the Amharic Web corpus ==
 We have used the following steps to create a big Web corpus: First, adopting the Corpus factory method [1] bigrams of Amharic words from the Crúbadán database [2] were used to query Bing search engine for documents in Amharic. 354 queries yielded 6,453 URLs. URLs of 3,145 successfully downloaded documents were used as starting points for web crawler SpiderLing [3]. URLs of documents crawled in 2013 using a similar approach were added to the set of starting points.

 We observe the content of news/politic and religious portals has a significant presence in the corpus sources. Since there are only 149 domains with more than 10 documents represented in the corpus, the result collection would benefit from a greater variety of sources.
