How might evidence of language use - writing and speech - be used
as a way of studying language? Corpus linguistics is the study of
linguistic data from a particular language or set of languages. It
is a fast-moving approach to studying language, and there is still
a degree of divergence in how research questions are approached
using corpus data. This book uses a framework, based on the work of
Karl Popper, to explore a number of fundamental issues in corpus
linguistics. It critically evaluates how these issues are tackled,
and proposes a set of best practices for future research. It spells
out why using corpus data is valuable, what we can learn from using
it, and how we may most effectively progress our understanding of
language by using such data. It is essential reading for
researchers and students of language in general, and of applied
linguistics and English language in particular.
