Corpus linguistics is an empirical method for the study of language by way of a text corpus (plural corpora). [1] Corpora are balanced, often stratified collections of authentic, "real world", text of speech or writing that aim to represent a given linguistic variety. [1] Today, corpora are generally machine-readable data collections.
A corpus may contain texts in a single language (monolingual corpus) or text data in multiple languages (multilingual corpus).In order to make the corpora more useful for doing linguistic research, they are often subjected to a process known as annotation.

In corpus linguistics, treebanks are used to study syntactic phenomena (for example, diachronic corpora can be used to study the time course of syntactic change). Once parsed, a corpus will contain frequency evidence showing how common different grammatical structures are in use.
This corpus first set the bar for the scientific study of the frequency and distribution of word categories in everyday language use. Compiled by Henry Kučera and W. Nelson Francis at Brown University , in Rhode Island , it is a general language corpus containing 500 samples of English, totaling roughly one million words, compiled from works ...
Examples are the Lombardic language and Dadanitic, a Semitic language that may be close to classical Arabic. Corpus languages are studied using the methods of corpus linguistics , but corpus linguistics can also be used (and is commonly used) for the study of the writings and other records of living languages.
