In this paper, we deal with the problem of storing and retrieving dialectal data in a unified framework. In particular, we discuss issues concerning the design and implementation of a multimedia database which will contain written and oral data from three Greek dialects in Asia Minor. At first, we describe the overall architecture of a system aiming at providing the user with the possibility to store audio recordings, text transcripts, and other annotations. Then we discuss the possibilities and limitations of a retrieval module aiming at combining different linguistic levels for a unified exploitation of oral and written corpora.
