Covers fundamental concepts and methods of Corpus Linguistics that
provides the reader with both the theory and practice underlining
Corpus research. Provides a basic toolkit of concepts and methods
that will empower students to undertake their own research. Has a
focus on understudied languages and linguistic typology so will be
relevant to those researching a range of international languages
other than English.

The rapid decline in the world's linguistic diversity has prompted
the emergence of documentary linguistics. While documentary
linguistics aims primarily at creating a durable, accessible and
comprehensive record of languages, it has also been a driving force
in developing language annotation and analysis software, archiving
architecture, improved fieldwork methodologies, and new standards
in data accountability and accessibility. More recently,
researchers have begun to recognize the immense potential available
in the archived data as a source for linguistic analysis, so that
the field has become of increasing importance for typologists, but
also for neighbouring disciplines. The present volume contains
contributions by practitioners of language documentation, most of
whom have been involved in the Volkswagen Foundation's DoBeS
programme (Dokumentation Bedrohter Sprachen). The topics covered in
the volume reflect a field that has matured over the last decade
and includes both retrospective accounts as well as those that
address new challenges: linguistic annotation practice, fieldwork
and interaction with speech communities, developments and
challenges in archiving digital data, multimedia lexicon
applications, corpora from endangered languages as a source for
primary-data typology, as well as specific areas of linguistic
analysis that are raised in documentary linguistics.
