Korpus-Analyse (text corpora)

Korpus-Analyse, or corpus analysis, involves studying large collections of written or spoken texts (corpora) to uncover patterns, trends, and linguistic features. By examining these extensive data sets, researchers can identify how words and phrases are used in real language, track changes over time, and compare different groups or topics. It’s a valuable tool for linguistics, language learning, and artificial intelligence, providing objective insights based on actual language use rather than intuition or small samples. Essentially, it helps us understand how language functions in various contexts through the systematic analysis of large text collections.
