FReND is a freely available corpus of French language in which negations are hand-annotated. Negations are annotated by their cues and scopes. Comprising 590K tokens and over 8.9K negations, it is the largest dataset available for French. A variety of types of textual genres are covered: literature, blog posts, Wikipedia articles, political debates, clinical reports and newspaper articles. As the understanding of negation is not yet mastered by current state of the art AI-models, FReND is not only a valuable resource for linguistic research into negation, but also as training data for AI tasks such as negation detection.
