Abstract:

The aim of this volume is to showcase the range of corpus-based linguistic
research currently being carried out on languages other than English. 
The papers included report on work carried out on Arabic, Bulgarian, Czech,
Dutch, French, German, Biblical Greek, Biblical Hebrew, Medieval Irish,
Korean, Romanian and Swedish, including a number of regional and social
variants. They also address a range of areas as diverse as corpus design,
corpus annotation, register analysis, syntax, and quantitative linguistics. 

The papers in this volume will leave the reader in no doubt that
corpus-based research is now being conducted for a whole "rainbow of
languages".
