Abstract:

This volume contains a selection of the papers delivered at the Corpus
Linguistics 2003 conference, held at Lancaster University in April 2003.
The papers selected address a wide range of world languages - Basque,
Chinese, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Maltese, Polish, Russian,
Spanish, and Slovene. Both synchronic and diachronic studies are included,
as well as studies of learner language. In addition to mainstream
linguistic analyses of phonetics, vocabulary, syntax, semantics, and
rhetoric, application areas covered in the volume include financial
forecasting, cross-cultural research, corpus processing, and language teaching.
