BOLANOS CUELLAR, Sergio. CORPUS LINGUISTICS: APPROACHES FOR CONTEMPORARY LINGUISTIC RESEARCH. Forma funcion, Santaf, de Bogot, D.C. [online]. 2015, vol.28, n.1, pp.31-54. ISSN 0120-338X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/fyf.v28n1.51970.

Nowadays Corpus Linguistics (CL) is one of the most developed research areas in linguistic studies. This paper presents an abridged historical review of the use of corpora from the hand-made lexicography of the 17^th c., through biblical and grammatical studies of 18^th and 19^th c., to the first generation of electronic corpora in the 60s and later. A 'corpus' definition as well as its typology and main characteristics are also discussed. Likewise the methodological potential of CL for research in contemporary linguistics is also depicted, e.g. in translation critique, materials design for language teaching, lexical and grammatical differentiation of dialectal varieties, the making of descriptive grammars, and sociolinguistic discourse analysis.

Palavras-chave : corpus linguistics; definition of Corpus; corpus typology; applications of cl; magacorpora.
