Corpora in Language for Specific Purposes Research
Computer processing developments and the compilation of specialized corpora (large, structured collections of spoken or written texts) have brought about innovative approaches to discourse analysis that help expand the description of the language used by specific discourse communities. Corpus‐based research findings provide empirical evidence of the linguistic tendencies used in these specialized discourses. These findings become important tools …
Douglas, Dan
Dan Douglas' contribution to the study of Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) and Language Assessment needs special mentioning, not only for his work on the novel exploration of certain specific registers, like the language of aviation, but also for his groundbreaking work on assessment in LSP. His work on this area focused on analyzing the development of assessment criteria for LSP and on exploring ways to derive these assessment criteria from …
Corpus Analysis of Multi‐word Units
The use of corpora and corpus tools in the identification and analysis of multi‐word units helped improve traditional approaches to the study of formulaic language and brought about new methods that allow for the empirical investigation of this type of expression. Although collocations and multi‐word collocations have been studied in linguistics for centuries, the use of corpus‐based methodologies allowed for empirical approaches that complement …
Lexical Bundles and Grammar
Lexical bundles are groups of three or more words that frequently occur in a register. They are identified by computer software designed for linguistic analysis. Lexical bundles are not complete grammatical units because they are made up of structural fragments with other embedded fragments, but they can be grouped according to their grammatical correlates. Lexical bundles have been considered language building blocks, and they performed very dis…
Using multiword collocations as a tool to address the demands of conventionalized medical discourse for international publication
The purpose of this study is to: Connecting lexical bundles and moves in research article introductions
Corpora in Language for Specific Purposes Research
Among the various approaches that are often used to study language for specific purposes (LSP), those focusing on the analysis of the genres used by the target discourse communities have attracted a high degree of attention in the last decade. The members of different discourse communities develop specific communicative practices and conventions to communicate with one another and with other communities. Language learners who need to acculturate …
Lexical Bundles and Grammar
Early studies that identified and analyzed recurrent multiword units were conducted from a rather impressionistic perspective.
Douglas, Dan
Dan Douglas has made groundbreaking contributions to the study of language for specific purposes (LSP) and language assessment, including his work on the novel exploration of certain specific registers, like the language of aviation, but most importantly with his work on assessment in LSP. His work on assessment focused on analyzing the development of assessment criteria for LSP and on exploring ways to derive these assessment criteria from the s…
Lexical Bundles and Technology
The study of frequently occurring word combinations has been an important focus in the linguistic field for several decades, but it was the appearance of corpus‐based methodologies and the advancement of computer technology that prompted the design of new research questions and the empirical rather than intuitive investigation of such linguistic phenomena.
Corpora in the Teaching of Language for Specific Purposes
The analyses of specialized corpora (i.e., large collections of machine‐readable texts) help describe language in detail, providing data that can be easily transferred to pedagogical contexts. Thus, corpus‐based language analyses have become an invaluable tool in the teaching of, and materials design for, language for specific purposes (LSP), as language learners need to master the specific discourses used in their new language communities to bec…
