Text corpus

a corpus is a large collection of samples of a language. A corpus helps us to understand more about a language and see how people use it when they speak and when they write

    ·  British National Corpus
       Søg på ord eller udtryk - og check anvendelse og betydning

    ·  Man kan også søge på ord og udtryk i Googles søgemaskine for at se, om formuleringen er almindeligt brugt. Sæt anførselstegn omkring udtrykket, når du søger. Husk, at det ikke er nogen garanti for formuleringens korrekthed, at den findes på nettet. Få forekomster kan antyde, at udtrykket ikke er standard engelsk
