<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"CMU Serif"">Dear all – I’m looking for corpus studies that have measured frequencies of various kinds of functional expressions. E.g., how often does negation occur? How often are modals used?
What is the frequency of past vs. present vs. future tense? And so on. Particularly in languages other than English and crosslinguistically. – Thanks! – Juergen<o:p></o:p></span></p>
