LING 250 - Corpus Linguistics


Semester Hours: 3
Spring
This course explores the ways in which corpora – large electronic compilations of systematically collected texts for researching linguistic variation and change – are compiled, annotated, and analyzed. Students gain a working knowledge of a variety of corpus analysis tools and their application to existing and self-created corpora. The class also investigates current methods like authorship analysis – that is, the analysis of documents of questioned authorship. Students will be challenged to consider new ways in which corpus methods may be employed to further inform and advance this important analytical task.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
May not be taken on a Pass/Fail basis.
