Frequency Analysis of English Vocabulary and Grammar: Based on the Lob Corpus : Tag Combinations and Word Combinations - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

This work is based on a grammatically analyzed ("tagged") version of the Lancaster-Oslo-Bergen (LOB) Corpus, which is a broadly representative collection of contemporary English texts. The Corpus is analyzed on four levels: word-class frequencies (the frequency of nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc in different texts); word frequencies (the frequency of different grammatical uses of a word); word-class combinations (the preceding and following "neighbours" of each word class) and word combinations (combinations of frequent nouns, verbs and adjectives). Principal new features of the analysis are the surveys of word-class combinations and word combinations. Researchers working in linguistics, lexicography, stylistics and automatic language analysis should find this text useful.
