The present article describes the creation, labelling and main characteristics of a corpus of spoken Latin American Spanish. The corpus was collected with several objectives in mind: a) to fulfill our own research needs in the study of Latin American Spanish prosodic phenomena, where the absence of available corpora has already been noticed [1] [2], b) to be able to experiment with prosodic models used in speech synthesis and c) to make it available to the community of researchers.
