A corpus‐based approach to Chinese English lexis
The study approaches the currency of Chinese English lexis from two perspectives. First, it creates a linguistic profile of 408 high‐frequency Chinese English terms extracted from the Chinese English Dictionary ( CED ) corpus by conducting a systematic coding and a statistical calculation of their linguistic features and by comparing the quantitative results with numerical distributions in the extant literature. Second, it evaluates the currency …
