Thus, starting from the definition of what is a corpus and why reading a corpus calls for a different methodology from reading a text, the underlying assumptions behind corpus work are discussed. The two main approaches to corpus work are discussed as the "corpus-based" and the "corpus-driven" approach and the theoretical positions underlying them explored in detail. The book adopts and exemplifies the parameters of the corpus-driven approach and posits a new unit of linguistic description defined systematically in the light of corpus evidence. The applications where the corpus-driven approach is exemplified are language teaching and contrastive linguistics. Alternating between practical examples and theoretical evaluation, the reader is led step-by-step to a detailed understanding of the issues involved in corpus work and, at the same time, tempted to explore for himself some of the major applications where a corpus-driven methodology can reveal unprecedented insights into linguistic patterning. 410 0$aStudies in corpus linguistics ;$vv. 6. 606 $aCorpora (Linguistics) 606 $aComputational linguistics 606 $aApplied linguistics 615 0$aCorpora (Linguistics) 615 0$aComputational linguistics. 615 0$aApplied linguistics. 676 $a410/.1 700 $aTognini-Bonelli$b Elena$0532751 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826402303321 996 $aCorpus linguistics at work$9901711 997 $aUNINA
