-Description: A simple package that makes the 'KorAP' web service API accessible from R.
+Description: A client package that makes the 'KorAP' web service API accessible from R.
+ The corpus analysis platform 'KorAP' has been developed as a scientific tool to make
+ potentially large, stratified and multiply annotated corpora, such as the 'German Reference Corpus DeReKo'
+ or the 'Corpus of the Contemporary Romanian Language CoRoLa', accessible for linguists to let them verify
+ hypotheses and to find interesting patterns in real language use.
+ The 'RKorAPClient' package provides access to 'KorAP' and the corpora behind it for user-created R code,
+ as a programmatic alternative to the 'KorAP' web user-interface.
+ You can learn more about 'KorAP' and use it directly on 'DeReKo' at <https://korap.ids-mannheim.de/>.
