Romance Fiction Mini-Corpus

In the final weeks of our course, we will be looking at one small part of computational linguistics, corpus linguistics. In corpus linguistics, we work with corpora (plural of corpus), so each of you will help to compile a mini-corpus of romantic fiction texts. Find the appropriate page in our blog and enter the text of your story. We will be using this genre-specific corpus to learn how CL can help us study English.
