[Corpora-List] CORLI

[Susan Hunston]

I rather like CORLISS (CORpus LInguistics StudieS).

Actually I also like ICLIC (International Corpus LInguistics Conference), but that sounds like an iphone app.

CORLI sounds like an option.

 From the net: Corly \c(o)-rly, cor-ly\ as a girl's name is a variant  
of Corliss (Old English),
and the meaning of Corly is "carefree, cheery, benevolent".

This would make CORLI a female mate to the COLING.
