Sprachkorpora – Datenmengen und Erkenntnisfortschritt

Large linguistic corpora are becoming increasingly important for linguistic work. For several years now, research endeavors have been dedicated to the construction of large corpora, the theory of data and corpora, as well as the development of methods in corpus analysis. The current volume focuses on theoretical and methodological questions about the compilation and use of large corpora and deals with these questions from the perspective of various linguistic subdisciplines, such as grammar, lexicon/lexicography, pragmatics/sociolinguistics and computer linguistics/informatics.

"[...] liegt hier ein überaus interessanter und lesenswerter Sammelband vor, der einen Eindruck über die Vielfalt und Bedeutung korpuslinguistischer Analysen zu vermitteln vermag."
