[Corpora-List] Plea for help

[David Lee]

My web site http://devoted.to/corpora gives extensive links to most aspects
of corpus-based language research. You will find links to corpora, software
and tools, and also relevant references (see, in particular, the section on
introductory textbooks, and the links to comprehensive on-line/downloadable
bibliographies on the field).


Dave.
