“…Corpus is recognized as powerful technology in language learning, because of its wide range of lexicographic resources [33]. Dash and Arulmozi [34] defined corpus as a collection of speeches, conversations, writings, etc., that students use to study and describe a language. For example, the London-Lund corpus consists of about 435,000 spoken British English words.…”

In this study, we reviewed articles on technology-enhanced language learning and teaching. We aimed to summarize the content of reviewed articles in the following categories: (1) the number of articles published by journals and by year; (2) languages and skills; (3) technology used; (4) promising technologies. We reviewed 398 research articles. The highest number of articles was published in 2017 (n = 80), whereas the lowest number was published in 2014 (n = 53). The Computer Assisted Language Learning journal published the highest number of articles (n = 100), whereas the lowest number of published articles appeared in IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies (n = 3). The most common target language was English (n = 267). Writing, speaking, and vocabulary gained the most attention in published articles. Twenty-three different technologies were identified and they were used 406 times. Based on our results, we made several implications and suggestions for future studies. This review study can serve as a guide for teaching and research communities who plan on designing language learning and teaching activities supported by technologies.

“…Out of six (6) utterances that are labeled as commissives, five ( 5) are promises and one (1) is a statement of refusal. Here, the love that Awiyao and Lumnay have for each other can be clearly felt via their conversation exchanges.…”

“…One cannot deny that there is an inextricable linkage between linguistics and literature. It is through the former that linguists and scholars are able to dig deeper in order to arrive at a clearer and more comprehensive inquiry of characters with diverse characterizations in a literary piece taking into consideration the conversation exchanges as the principal linguistic data for discourse analysis (Dash & Arulmozi, 2018).…”

The study of meaning behind word and sentence levels is the core of discourse analysis. It burrows beneath the surface of conversation exchanges between characters in a literary piece. Doing so draws the readers to the context of the story. Hence, this paper attempted to exhaustively analyze a short story titled Wedding Dance written by a Filipino poet and novelist, Amador Daguio. To comprehensively scrutinize the meat of the utterances as the linguistic data in the analysis process, the researcher utilized Searle’s five (5) speech act categories. The findings of the study showed that the conversation exchanges between the main characters, Awiyao and Lumnay, are abundant in terms of directives, commissives, representatives, declarations or performatives, and expressives.

“…The scope of corpus use is further expanded in the observations of Atkins et al (1992), Leech and Fligelstone (1992), McEnery and Wilson (1996), Rundell (1996), Barlow (1996), Thomas and Short (1996), Biber (1996), Biber et al (1998), Teubert (2000, Cheng (2011), Crawford andCsomay (2015), McEnery and Hardie (2011), Vandelanotte et al (2014), Weisser (2015), Dash (2005), Dash and Arulmozi (2018), and many others. In essence, a language corpus is a valuable linguistic resource for all areas of descriptive linguistics, language technology, applied linguistics, discourse analysis, and cognitive linguistics.…”
