Hmmm, I would have used the word diwan دوان but I suspect that's  
not at all a linguistic term, and may not even be accurate as a common  
term for 'corpus.' To me, a diwan is a collection, usually used to  
refer to literary works but flexible enough to refer to a collection  
of words/phrases/recordings for the purpose of language learning. Am I  
totally off here? Is it only appropriately used to refer to written  
works?

I found in several contexts use of "mudawwana" for "corpus" but it is  
used for "web blog" or "blog" too.

"Dhakhiirah lughawwiyyah" is also used especially in some papers  
submitted to journal of al-Lisan al-Arabi but I don't think that it  
would be the most appropriate equivalant because a corpus does not  
refer to just linguistic (lughawiyya) one. You can use "corpus" for  
many fields. Also, "dhakhiirah lughawwiyyah" may means "vocabulary"  
like "haseela lughawiyya" in many contexts.

Hi
I wonder about the meaning of the expression "????? ????? ???????"
(shawahid allugha al 'arabiyya) and whether it is used for corpus in the
Arabic linguistic context.
Salam

The word 'mudawanah' مدونة has been widely used to mean 'blog'.  
Therefore it is not suitable. The expression 'thakheerah lughawiyah',  
on the other hand, has been used to refer to one's vocabulary.

What occurred to me is  ديوان or something with it in a phrase  
[like ديوان لغوي ] as a it's in effect a corpus consisting of  
all poems by one author, among other types of collections.  I've never  
seen it used this way, so it would be a suggested new coinage.
