Corpus Linguistics
Corpus linguistics is the analysis of large collections of machine-readable texts called corpora. It utilizes computers to analyze patterns of language use in natural texts. Corpus linguistics is an empirical approach that uses quantitative and qualitative techniques on representative text samples to study topics like lexicography, grammar, dialects and language acquisition. It provides consistent, reliable analyses of complex language patterns not possible through manual analysis alone.
