Data & API

The observatory's data can be downloaded as CSV files or queried through the JSON API.

The references for citing the data or the project are available on the About page.

JSON API

Public, read-only endpoints. All of them return UTF-8 encoded JSON.

EndpointParametersDescription
api/palabra.php word (required) Full profile of a lemma: occurrences, frequencies, forms, weekly time series, breakdown by outlet and section. Example
api/buscar.php q (required), mode=contains|prefix|exact, media, section, from, to, lang=en|other, p Occurrence search, paginated (25 per page). Example
api/comparar.php words (comma-separated, max 5) Frequency-per-million time series for several lemmas. Example
api/tendencias.php tipo=top|rising|new, periodo=week|month|quarter|year, dias=7|30|365 Rankings: most frequent, rising or new anglicisms. Example
api/sugerencias.php q (required, min. 2 characters) Lemma autocomplete. Example

Fair use: the API is intended for one-off queries and prototypes, and enforces a per-IP rate limit (20-60 requests per minute depending on the endpoint; exceeding it returns 429). For large-scale analyses, please download the monthly CSV files.

Monthly CSV files

One file per month with the anglicisms extracted by Lázaro, hosted on GitHub.
