Some studies interrogate historical corpora to reconstruct the diachronic development of patterns such as light verb constructions, verb-particle combinations, the be a-verbing progressive and absolute constructions. Other studies analyse synchronic datasets to typify the functions in discourse of, amongst others, tag questions and it-clefts, or to elucidate some long-standing problems in the syntactic analysis of verbal or adjectival complementation patterns, thanks to the empirical detail only corpora can provide. The volume documents the practices that have been developed to guarantee optimal representativeness of corpus data, to formulate definitions of patterns that can be operationalized in extractions, and to build dimensions of variation such as text type and register into rich grammatical descriptions. --Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a English language $x Data processing $x Data processing $v Congresses. 650 0 $a English language $x Data processing $x Data processing $v Congresses. 650 0 $a English language $x Data processing $x Data processing $v Congresses. 650 0 $a Computational linguistics $v Congresses. 700 1 $a Davidse, Kristin, $e editor. 830 0 $a Studies in corpus linguistics ; $v v. 63. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017023336.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826103554.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=43BF34926B5611E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
