    abstract = "We present RONEC - the Named Entity Corpus for the Romanian language. The corpus contains over 26000 entities in {\textasciitilde}5000 annotated sentences, belonging to 16 distinct classes. The sentences have been extracted from a copy-right free newspaper, covering several styles. This corpus represents the first initiative in the Romanian language space specifically targeted for named entity recognition. It is available in BRAT and CoNLL-U Plus formats, and it is free to use and extend at github.com/dumitrescustefan/ronec"
