The study of linguistic variation requires a familiarity with both the basic tools of qualitative linguistic analysis and quantitative methods of for pursuing that analysis to deeper levels. This presentation will assume a basic familiarity with both sets of tools, and focus upon how theyt are used to address the major questions of linguistic structure and linguistic change. Given the output of...

This article surveys a selected variety of statistical methods that are currently used in experimental and observational studies in linguistics. It covers goodness-of-fit tests, monoand multifactorial hypothesis testing methods, and hypothesis-generating techniques. In addition, for the two major sections of significance testing and exploratory methods, the article also discusses a wide range o...

The paper is devoted to the study of quantitative methods in linguistics and describes the studies conducted. The purpose is to give the general idea of these studies. The first one considers one of the principal logical categories—the quality. The basis of the research was comprised of lexicographical recourses. The text study finishes up the research. The second one dwells on the usage of the...

Quantitative linguistics (QL) is a discipline of linguistics, that, using real texts, studies languages with quantitative mathematical approaches, aiming to precisely describe and explain, with a system of mathematical laws, the operation and development of language systems. Later in this review, we will address the relationship between QL and computational linguistics. Quantitative Syntax Anal...

This genre-based study investigated the cross-disciplinary variations in the rhetorical structure of the Discussion sections of 104 applied linguistics and chemistry research articles (RAs), drawing upon Basturkmen’s (2009, 2012) framework and taking into account the new insights proposed by Bhatia (2004), Shehzad (2008), and Lim (2012). To this end, in addition to collecting quantitative data ...

Abstract Linguistics, English linguistics in particular, has witnessed a remarkable quantitative turn since the 1990s and early 2000s. It was both scale quality, concerning degree (including of sophistication) to which empirical studies, statistical techniques, modelling have come be used determine linguistic research.
