Real Grammar: A Corpus-Based Approach to English
[As perhaps the most fundamental statistic in corpus linguistics, frequency of occurrence plays a significant role in uncovering variation in language. Frequency lists have been designed for a variety of linguistic features and employed in order to address a variety of research questions in diverse fields of inquiry, from language learning and teaching to literary analysis to workplace communication. This chapter provides an overview of fundamental concepts and methods in the development and application of frequency lists, including issues related to the target unit of analysis, and key considerations beyond raw frequency, such as the importance of normalising frequency counts when making comparisons and employing additional measures to gain a more comprehensive picture of distributional characteristics.]
