Hi there,
The term we used in my home university in Cairo was "ذخيرة  
لغوية". I always felt it is kind of awkward though, especially  
when you want to use it as an adjective. Maybe there are better  
alternatives.

Hi,
The word  مُدَوًّنة (pl. مُدَوَّنات ) is used in  
several works published in Egypt.

I got an e-mail back from Mustafa Mughazi where he found in a 2007  
Egyptian dictionary the following translation:
مدونة نصوص واسعة
I wonder if somebody will one day come up with a one-word name for  
corpus in Arabic, that is more reflective of its function.
