Corpora and Language in Use
Presses universitaires de Louvain
Corpora and Language in Use is a series aimed at publishing research monographs and conference proceedings in the area of corpus linguistics and language in use. The main focus is on corpus data, but research that compares corpus data to other kinds of empirical data, such as experimental or questionnaire data, is also of interest, as well as studies focusing on the design and use of new methods and tools for processing language texts.
The series also welcomes volumes that show the relevance of corpus analysis to application fields such as lexicography, language learning and teaching, or natural language processing.
