“…The quality of the extracted data and the validity of the research results often depend on such parameters of corpus design as size (how large a corpus is), content (what types of and how many texts or text samples are included), representativeness, which is achieved through balancing (what types of genres and in what proportions are included) and sampling techniques (does the corpus include whole texts or text fragments) (Sinclair 1991(Sinclair , 1996Biber, Conrad & Reppen 1998;Kennedy 1998;McEnery & Wilson 2001;McEnery & Gabrielatos 2006;Meyer 2002;Zanettin 2002aZanettin , 2000bZanettin 2011;Baker 2006;Rundell 2008;Anthony 2009;King 2009;Schäfer, Barbaresi & Bildhauer 2013;Losey-Leon 2015). Other parameters that can also be considered are the number of texts, period coverage (or time frame), authorship (e.g., material produced by native and nonnative speakers), and the source of the material (open-access, restricted, copyright, etc.).…”

This practice illustration paper aims to present the rationale and methodology of using corpus analysis tools and other software to develop students’ terminology analysis skills and enhance terminology acquisition at university level. It focuses not only on students of philology, but also on non-linguists within ESP courses. The paper presents the types of assignments for terminological analysis based on corpus analysis methodology as well as skills and competences developed through such activities. Assignments on corpus analysis of terminology provide several important benefits. Besides developing language analysis skills and deepening the knowledge of the specific domain, students also develop their research skills through data collection and analysis. They become researchers who can explore the linguistic phenomena on their own and share their discoveries. They develop the skills of working with different data sources, selection of relevant materials for the research, extracting, interpreting, and managing terminological data. It is hoped that the activities and practices presented in the paper will inspire ESP and EFL teachers to integrate the use of digital language technologies into terminology teaching strategies

This corpus-based study aims to identify the keywords and collocation strength (Gries, 2013) in different text types across sister specialized subcorpora in the maritime transport field. Within this English for Specific Purposes area, which has been given little attention to from a corpus linguistics approach, the contrastive analysis will be primarily intended to determine the frequency and coverage of register (Leech, 2001) and explore the terms' distinctiveness in each of the subcorpora under study despite their close ties in a shared semantic maritime field. The designed workplan for this empirical study relies on putting differences into perspective alongside similarities within the framework of cooccurrence frequency count data (Evert, 2005) where keyword extraction and collocation patterns for each separate subcorpus are allocated and mutually compared. Finally, outcomes obtained shall help us determine the text terminological coverage, the collocation strengths or other associative characteristics that can provide us with more reliable results, with a fuller picture of how the selected terms work and with useful insights into salient markers of Maritime English language.
