概要 Corpora, and the tools used to query them, have seen rapid advancements in the last decade. These advancements have primarily been concerned with the exploitation of web-derived linguistic data through the development of sophisticated tools that can handle the crawling, processing, and analysing of the data extracted from the World Wide Web. These web corpora, often made up of billions of words, rather than the millions associated with more traditional corpora like the British National Corpus (BNC), can be loaded into web-based corpus query systems, such as Sketch Engine, CQPweb, and Colibri2, allowing corpus querying to be done anywhere. This article gives a brief overview of the rise of web corpora and web-based corpus query systems, and outlines some of the ways in which the Sketch Engine—a web-based corpus query system built around a huge number of web-derived corpora—can be exploited for educational purposes.
