Lehrinhalte
The seminar gives an introduction oo corpus and computational approaches in linguistics based on research from domains such as register linguistics, historical linguistics etc.
Voraussetzungen
Students wanting to join this seminar should have completed the Introduction to linguistics I and II and have completed a pro-seminar in linguistics.
Official Course Description
This seminar is concerned with methods of the corpus-based and computer aided analysis of language. We are going to discuss types of research questions and applications that are suitably pursued by means of corpus and computational linguistic methods and techniques. Examples are lexicological questions such as research on terminology as well as collocations and other types of multi-word lexical units, the corpus-based description of special-purpose grammars, e.g. extraction of register-specific subcategorization patterns, and the role of corpora in statistical language modelling.
