This day I were trained about how to use Corpus Linguistics byMr.kriangkrai Vathanalaoha.
The English corpus was based on a subset of the corpus of Reuters news, a collection of newswires from Reuters for one year from 1996-08-20 to 1997-08-19.
You can search trough a subset of the corpus within texts annotated with general topic codes (prefixed with 'G' in the Reuters classification).
This includes newswire texts concerning political events (GPOL), crime (GCRI), entertainment (GENT), etc, but excludes news from markets, unless they were explicitly annotated with general topic codes
by Reuters corpus developers.
Mr.kriangkrai Vathanalaoha
told about types of corpus.There were seven types of corpus.
1.Special Corpus
2.General Corpus
3.Mutilingual Corpus
4.Parallel Corpus
5.Learner Corpus
6.Historical or Diachronic Corpus
7.Monitor Corpus
Next, I learned the processes in Corpus linguistics that were frequencies, concordances, collocations, distribution information, keywords and dispersion plots.
