The Department strongly recommends that any student interested in corpus-based research take LING 5200: Corpus Linguistics.

In the meantime, however, you can visit the Linguistic Data Consortium (LDC) website to familiarize yourself with the available corpora and to learn how to use tgrep to perform pattern searches in parsed corpora.

For more information, go to the
LDC website search page and type in "tgrep". It will give you several links explaining how to use the tgrep command, which is available on babel. For more information contact Martha Palmer or Jena Hwang at the CU Linguistics department.
