It illustrates register variation analysis in different theoretical frameworks, such as Probabilistic Grammar, Systemic Functional Linguistics, and Information Theory, and proposes a new framework within the Text Linguistic Approach: the continuous-situational analytical framework. Several of the contributions apply Multi-Dimensional Analysis to corpus data in order to unveil register (dis)similarities, while others rely on logistic regression models and periodization techniques based on Kullback-Leibler divergence. The volume includes both inter-register and intra-register variation analysis of a wide spectrum of varieties, speakers and periods: British and American English, learner varieties, L2 varieties, and EFL, and also contains diachronic studies covering early and late Modern English. This broad scope should be a source of inspiration for anyone interested in historical and ongoing register variation in a vast range of varieties of English worldwide"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aStudies in Corpus Linguistics 606 $aEnglish language$xVariation$vCongresses 606 $aRegister (Linguistics)$vCongresses 606 $aCorpora (Linguistics)$vCongresses 608 $aConference papers and proceedings.$2lcgft 615 0$aEnglish language$xVariation 615 0$aRegister (Linguistics) 615 0$aCorpora (Linguistics) 676 $a427.00188 702 $aBiber$b Douglas 702 $aSeoane$b Elena 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910795111103321 996 $aCorpus-based approaches to register variation$92881624 997 $aUNINA
