Learning outcomes
This course is an introduction to the fast growing field of corpus linguistics. It aims to familiarise students with key concepts and common methods used in the construction of language corpora, as well as tools that have been developed for searching and using major corpora such as the British National Corpus, Czech National Corpus, and CJK corpora. Students will be given hands-on experience in pre-editing, annotating, and searching corpora. Criteria and methods used for evaluating corpora and analytical tools will also be discussed. This lays the groundwork for research using big data. The main aim of this module is to master the uses of text corpora in linguistics research and data analysis.
