Doing Corpus Linguistics offers a practical step-by-step introduction to corpus linguistics, making use of widely available corpora and of a register analysis-based theoretical framework to provide students in applied linguistics and TESOL with the understanding and skills necessary to meaningfully analyze corpora and carry out successful corpus-based research.This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated with fresh exercises, examples, and references, as well as an extensive list of English corpora around the world. It also provides more clarity around the approach used in the book, contains new sections on how to identify patterns in texts, and now covers Cohen’s statistical method.This practical and applied text emphasizes hands-on experience with performing language analysis research and interpreting findings in a meaningful and engaging way. Readers are given multiple opportunities to analyze language data by completing smaller tasks and corpus projects using publicly available corpora. The book also takes readers through the process of building a specialized corpus designed to answer a specific research question and offers detailed information on completing a final research project that includes both a written paper and an oral presentation of the reader’s specific research projects.Doing Corpus Linguistics provides students in applied linguistics and TESOL with the opportunity to gain proficiency in the technical and interpretive aspects of corpus research and to encourage them to participate in the growing field of corpus linguistics.

Provides clear and comprehensive guidance to advanced students to perform their own research in the fast-changing field of English as a Lingua Franca English as a Lingua Franca: Practice and Research serves as a vital means of communication among speakers from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds, facilitating connections across global domains such as academia, business, and healthcare. English as a Lingua Franca: Practice and Research equips readers with the tools to explore the dynamic phenomenon of English as a Lingua Franca (ELF), tracing its history, linguistic characteristics, and societal implications. Assuming no previous background in the field, this accessible textbook provides step-by-step guidance for designing, conducting, and sharing original ELF research. Structured in two parts, the text first provides a balanced understanding of ELF and highlights its role in promoting intercultural communication and challenging traditional language ideologies. The second part equips readers with the necessary tools to perform ELF research, covering the entire research process from identifying research topics to choosing appropriate methodologies. Reflective questions, activities, and practical tips in each chapter deepen engagement with the material and encourage critical exploration of ELF. The first textbook of its kind to combine foundational concepts, theoretical insights, and hands-on practices in a single volume, English as a Lingua Franca: Practice and Research: Provides a framework to explore real-world language use and contribute meaningfully to the fieldCovers corpus analysis, conversation analysis, and narrative inquiryOffers practical strategies for selecting topics, structuring research projects, and presenting findings as papers, presentations, or postersDiscusses the role of ELF in language attitudes, policies, and multilingual communicationReflects upon cutting-edge ELF research and future directions for the fieldEnglish as a Lingua Franca: Practice and Research is an indispensable resource for students and researchers seeking to navigate this emerging field and engage with its growing community of scholars. It is ideal for advanced undergraduate and master's degree students, as well as linguists and TESOL professionals wanting to conduct research on global language practices.

In the field of Second Language Studies, shared datasets provide a valuable contribution to second language research as many variables are held constant (e.g., participants, tasks, research context) thus allowing for an evaluation of theoretical and/or methodological perspectives that may not otherwise be comparable. This edited volume includes a wide range of studies using a common dataset (the Corpus of Collaborative Oral Tasks). The corpus includes 820 spoken tasks (268,927 words) carried out by dyads of L2 English speakers (primarily Chinese and Arabic learners). Studies included in the book are categorized into three main traditions: learner corpus research, Task-Based Language Teaching, and assessment. Because the corpus contains text and sound files, both lexico-grammatical and phonological analyses are included. Intended for researchers in the field of Second Language Studies with an interest in oral interaction research, this book provides a collection of methodological, pedagogical, and assessment studies using a common dataset.
