(2015). Looking into the voids could help explain dark energy. New Scientist. <a href="https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg22630164-600-looking-into-the-voids-could-help-explain-dark-energy/">https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg22630164-600-looking-into-the-voids-could-help-explain-dark-energy/</a>).<br><br> The students' oral productions were faithfully transcribed and therefore contain hesitations and repetitions. Silent pauses ("ps" in the corpus) and voiced pauses ("pv" in the corpus) of minimum 2 seconds were coded in the transcriptions. The corpus is available in UTF-8 to ensure easy upload in concordancing programs and can be used by any researcher in translation studies who wishes to analyze any aspect of (sight) translation, possibly in regard with pauses.
