CORPUS LINGUISTICS - A JOURNEY FROM TRADITION TO MODERNITY

Abstract

Corpus linguistics is a relatively new science for Vietnamese researchers. In order to identify the development stages of corpus linguistics, the article synthesizes and briefly describes the outstanding researches in Vietnam and the world on the history of formation and development of corpus linguistics. Based on the role of electronic computers in corpus linguistics studies, the article divides the history of linguistics into two periods: traditional corpus linguistics and modern corpus linguistics. The results of identifying and segmenting the history of corpus linguistics in the article are a reference for researchers when studying about corpus linguistics in general and the history of this science in particular.
