English. Modern learner corpora are now routinely PoS tagged, whereas syntactic parsing is much less frequent. This paper proposes a first attempt of parsing applied to a subcorpus of VALICO, in an effort to identify key elements to be further used to parse corpora of Italian as a foreign language in

NLP applications for learners often rely on annotated learner corpora. Thereby, it is important that the annotations are both meaningful for the task, and consistent and reliable. We present a new longitudinal L1 learner corpus for German (handwritten texts collected in grade 2–4), which is transcribed and annotated with a target hypothesis that strictly only corrects orthographic errors, and i...

Abstract This article provides an overview of methodological and technical issues that arise in the collection, indexing use spoken learner corpora, i. e. corpora containing utterances learners a target language. After introductory discussion most important special features this type corpus distinguish it from written language with L1 speakers, we will go into more detail on questions design. T...

This paper describes a method of comparing corpora which uses frequency profiling. The method can be used to discover key words in the corpora which differentiate one corpus from another. Using annotated corpora, it can be applied to discover key grammatical or word-sense categories. This can be used as a quick way in to find the differences between the corpora and is shown to have applications...

Abstract This review aims to introduce corpora as useful tools for facilitating vocabulary teaching and learning. Corpora have long been applied improve learner language learning, but their direct implication in classroom is rare. begins with providing basic concepts related then illustrates how can benefit learning teaching. To make better use of corpora, careful consideration needs be given c...

To gain an in-depth understanding of the development status and trend research on learner corpora, study, employing Web Science (WoB) as a data source, conducts statistical analysis corpora published in internationally renowned academic journals from 2007 to 2021, focusing respects trends, disciplines, journals, language, content, others. Results showed that international is characterized by in...
