Abstract
We present a dataset consisting of German offensive and non-offensive tweets, annotated for speech acts. These 600 tweets are a subset of the dataset by Struß et al. (2019) and comprises three levels of annotation, i.e., six coarse-grained speech acts, 23 fine-grained speech acts and 14 different sentence types. Furthermore, we provide an evaluation in both qualitative and quantitative terms. The dataset is made publicly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license.
