语料库语言学常用术语
Monolingual单语 corpus: a corpus which contains texts in a single language.
Multilingual多语 corpus: a corpus which represents small collections of individual monolingual corpora (or subcorpora) in the sense that they use the same or similar sampling procedures and categories for each language but contain completely different texts in those several languages.
TTR是衡量文本中词汇密度的常用方法。可 辅助说明文本的词汇难度。
但是,文本中有大量功能词(function words, 如the、a、of等)反复出现,文本每增加 一个词,形符就会增加一个,但类符却未 必随之增加。这样文本越长,功能词重复 次数越多,TTR会越低。因此用TTR衡量词 汇密度就不合理。
语料库的方法基于真实的语言使用情况,事实胜 于雄辩
Frank Liang
A corpus can be analyzed using software tools, much like those used to find key words on the Internet, but with greater sophistication. By evaluating the results of these searches, it is possible to see how language is really used, and to find answers to questions like these:
A term that signifies a list of a particular word or sequence of words in a context. The concordance is at the centre of corpus linguistics, because it gives access to many important language patterns in texts. Concordances of major works such as the Bible and Shakespeare have been available for many years. The computer has made concordances easy to compile. (concordancer索引软件, concordance lines索引行)
– Positive keywords and negative keywords

Keywords 关键词
– Keywords are words whose normalized frequency in one corpus (observed corpus) is significantly higher or lower than that in another comparable corpus (reference corpus).
Comparable (reference参照) corpus: a corpus used for comparison of different (types of) languages. Comparable corpora often follow the same composition pattern. If comparable corpora are annotated, annotation schemes for the corpora are often similar.

Example: Start or begin?在口语中哪个更常用?
我们的老师经常说Let’s begin!之类的话,对吗?

Types of corpora
Annotated标注 corpus: a corpus enhanced with various types of linguistic information (or tagged corpus). An annotated corpus may be considered to be a repository of linguistic information, because the information which was implicit in the plain text has been made explicit through concrete annotation (“added value附加值”).

语料库语言学常用术语
Special corpus专用语料库: A type of corpora that are assembled for a specific purpose, and they vary in size and composition according to their purpose. Special corpora are not balanced (except within the scope of their given purpose) and, if used for other purposes, give a distorted view of the language segment. Their main advantage is that the texts can be selected in such a way that the phenomena one is looking for occur much more frequently in special corpora than in a balanced corpus. A corpus that is enriched in such a way can be much smaller than a balanced corpus providing the same data.
How many words must a learner know in order to participate in everyday conversation?
Materials developed with a corpus can therefore be more authentic and can illustrate language as it is really used.

Parallel平行 (aligned) corpus: a multilingual corpus where texts in one language and their translations into other languages are aligned, sentence by sentence, preferably phrase by phrase.
What are the most frequent words and phrases in English?
Which tenses do people use most often?
What prepositions follow particular verbs?
How do people use words like can, may, and might?
The computer-generated concordances can be very flexible; the context of a word can be selected on various criteria (for example counting the words on either side).
