The study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of corpusrelated studies in linguistics between 2000 and 2015. Results show that the output of corpus-related publications have significantly increased in the past 15 years. In addition, traditional scientific powers such as the United States play leading roles in the area, while developing countries such as China also exert their impact in the area. More importantly, findings reveal that corpora have permeated a wide range of research areas in linguistics and have changed, at least in terms of methodology, these areas. Fabienne Petrack, Hanna Gnatchuk Lexicographic Problems of Collocations in Quantitative Linguistics 21 29 Abstract: The present article deals with an overview of the problem of collocations in quantitative linguistics. The aim of the article is to highlight problematic aspects of collocations which can be solved with the help of statistical methods. The main focus is on the overview of the research on collations carried out by Levitskij and under his supervision as well as his remarks on the analyzed problem.

Ioan-Iovitz Popescu, Tayebeh Mosavi Miangah, Hanna Gnatchuk, Radĕk Čech, Alice Bodoc,Gabriel Altmann On Rank-Frequency Distributions in Poetry 30 54 Abstract: Some properties of poetic texts are investigated in English, German, Russian, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Persian and Maori. Some well known properties of texts (e.g. h-point, repeat rate) are computed and various hypotheses are tested. The results are presented in tables and figures hence there is a good possibility to compare the results both with other languages and other text types. Both the rank-frequency relations and the spectrum of frequencies are investigated and fitted by well known functions or distribution. The translations of a Hungarian poem into six languages are investigated and Some properties of poetic texts are investigated in English, German, Russian, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Persian and Maori.
