PRINCIPLES OF CORPUS LINGUISTICS
Keywords:
Computers, collecting, lexicographers, slips, corpora.Abstract
The principles of corpus linguistics have been around for almost a century. Lexicographers, or dictionary makers, have been collecting examples of language in use to help accurately define words since at least the late 19th century. Before computers, these examples of language were essentially collected on small slips of paper and organized in pigeon holes. The advent of computers led to the creation of what we consider to be modern-day corpora. The first computer-based corpus, the Brown corpus, was created in 1961 and comprised about 1 million words.
