Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Computer corpora, i.e. electronically stored collections of spoken and written texts, have become an important tool for linguistic research, allowing us to uncover regularities of language use which are inaccessible to intuition. In recent years computer corpora have also found their way into language teaching, where they can be particularly beneficial for the non-native teacher.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Class participation, in-class presentation of projects, project paper

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

This course offers a very practical and hands-on introduction to computer corpora. With the help of concrete examples we will explore their potential (and limitations) for language description. We will consider, for instance, how computer corpora can help us
· identify collocations, colligations and syntactic patterns
· specify lexical meaning (e.g. semantic prosody, register)
· notice preferred occurrence of words and syntactic patterns in certain text types
· answer questions of ‘grammaticality’ and appropriate use

Prüfungsstoff

Participants will conduct their own mini-projects and present their findings in class; project paper, task-based work with computer corpora (no special computer knowledge required), class discussions of set readings

Literatur

Occasional reading texts will be provided
