This book aims to provide a micro-level, working model of a
methodological approach and practical guidelines for building a
corpus, informed by the work on the CorCenCC project (Corpws
Cenedlaethol Cymraeg Cyfoes - the National Corpus of Contemporary
Welsh). It focuses specifically on the development of detailed
design frames for corpora across communicative modes (spoken,
written and e-language), and the practical processes involved in
the planning, collection, transcription, collation and
(re)presentation of language data. The book is designed to be of
significant value and relevance to those interested in critically
engaging with corpus methodology. Although Welsh is the language
under discussion, the processes and approaches discussed in the
building of CorCenCC can be applied to a lesser or greater extent
to other language contexts. This book provides a working model, and
an account of how to build a corpus dataset from which step by step
guidelines for creating other linguistic corpora in any language
can be easily extrapolated. It will be of value to students and
scholars of minority languages and corpus linguistics.
