Reuse of social media data in corpus linguistics
The use of very large social media datasets in corpus linguistics has obvious benefits. Such data represent a novel source of evidence when compared with structured digital text corpora. However, there is a clear need to assess critically how the effective reuse of data can be handled, how findings can be reproduced, and how results can be generalized. A relevant question concerns the presentation of data to ensure reproducibility and replicabili…
Do we swear more with friends or with acquaintances? F#ck in social networks
We investigate the uses of fuck in digital social networks from social media, Twitter/X in this case. Social media outlets have so far been predominantly treated as massive text collections, but they can be effectively used to investigate the role of social networks in shaping human communication. We use user-generated texts from 5,660 social networks (with 435,345 users and 7.8 billion words) from three settings (UK, US, and Australia). With emb…
Revisiting the myth of stative progressives in world Englishes
Outer Circle varieties are commonly characterized as having wider use of the stative progressive; however, studies making this claim often fail to account for regional differences in verb‐phrase density. The present study remedies the methodological problem by focusing on the progressive vs. non‐progressive alternation, subjecting the data to a series of statistical analyses. The results indicate that we need to refine the term ‘wider use’ – it i…
Recent change in stative progressives
The spread of the progressive from dynamic to stative verbs started in the seventeenth century, and slowed down in the late twentieth century. The present study investigates recent change in the use of stative progressives in conversational British English from the early 1990s to the early 2010s. The analysis focuses on a total of 100 stative verb lemmata in the spoken, demographic sections of the original and new British National Corpus , restri…
The progressive versus non-progressive alternation
This corpus-based study focuses on the alternation between progressive and non-progressive constructions in native and non-native varieties. We adopt a quantitative-qualitative approach starting with a collostructional analysis of the two constructions to assess association strengths between lexical verbs, semantic domains and Aktionsart categories on the one hand, and progressive and non-progressive constructions on the other hand. We then explo…
