Dear lexicographers,<br><br>This message was posted today on LINGUIST LIST. I think this book is important for many of us. So I repost it on Lexicography list.<br><br>Hayim Y.

Fellbaum<br><br>Hardback: ISBN: 9780826489944 Pages: 224 Price: U.K. £ 75.00<br><br><br>Abstract:<br><br>This book demonstrates how corpus-based research can advance the<br>understanding of linguistic phenomena in a given language. By <br>presenting a detailed analysis of collocations and idioms in a digital corpus of <br>English and German, the contributors to this volume show how the use of<br>collocations and idioms has changed over time, and suggests possible<br>triggers for this change. The book not only examines what these<br>collocations and idioms are, but also what their purpose is within<br>languages. Idioms and Collocations is divided into three sections. The<br>first section discusses the construction, composition and annotation of <br>the corpus. Chapters in the second section describe the methods for <br>querying the corpus, the generation and maintenance of the example subcorpora, <br>and the linguistic-lexicographic analyses of the target idioms.
Finally,<br> <br>the third section presents the results of specific investigations into the<br>syntactic, semantic, and historical properties of collocations. This <br>book presents original work in corpus linguistics, computational <br>linguistics, theoretical linguistics and lexicography. It will be useful for <br>researchers in academic and industrial settings, and lexicographers. <br><br><br><br>Linguistic Field(s): Lexicography<br> Semantics<br> Syntax<br> Text/Corpus Linguistics<br><br>Subject Language(s): English (eng)<br> German, Standard (deu)<br><br><br>Written In: English (eng)<br> <br>See this book announcement on our website: <br><span style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(0, 102, 204); background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;"
