Abstract
This article reports a state-of-art review of recent development on corpus linguistics and corpus-based research in Hong Kong. A top-down, multi-layer, stratified review identified 29 on-going research projects from the eight research-active universities in Hong Kong. These projects make use of corpus technology to address a wide range of research questions related to issues in language teaching and learning, linguistic studies, cultural studies, information technology, and sign language. Such diversified applications of corpus technology clearly indicate the great potential and opportunities that corpus linguistics can afford for researchers, language educators and learners to explore and collaborate.
Highlights
The 29 projects are published research output, conference presentations, or work-in-progress from 2012 onwards
This article reports a state-of-art review of recent development on corpus linguistics and corpus-based research in Hong Kong
This paper reports on a study that systematically reviews how language corpus have been developed and/or used by researchers to address a diverse range of topics in their latest academic endeavours, focusing on research projects conducted in Hong Kong since 2012
Summary
The 29 projects are published research output (journal papers, books), conference presentations, or work-in-progress from 2012 onwards. Depending on their status at the time of this review (March 2013), available details for each project and presentation may vary. Published research outputs are usually accessible in their entirety, whilst on-going projects often have limited information. The 29 recent and on-going corpus or corpus-based language studies in Hong Kong are briefly described.
