Abstract:

This volume is grounded on the latest research in empirical contrastive
language studies, addressing several issues on contrasts between English and
other languages. It results from an annual workshop on language contrasts,
organised by the International Computer Archive of Modern and Medieval English
(ICAME), and covers a wider range of phenomena in phraseology, discourse and
pragmatics. As it relies on data from parallel or comparable corpora, it gives
valuable insights into cross-linguistic differences between English and other
languages, which might otherwise go unnoticed.

The book will be useful to experts on language studies and advanced students
with an interest in linguistics. It will serve as a catalyst to other
researchers interested in the contrastive analysis of the English language.
The results of the linguistic analyses described within will be valuable for
practical applications in lexicography, language teaching and translation
(both human and machine), including translator training.
