About this book
This book brings together recent work in descriptive, applied and corpus linguistics in order to attempt to provide an answer to questions such as the following: how can a learner improve her knowledge of a foreign language beyond the most rudimentary stages? What are the goals sge should set for herself, how can available technology assist her, what is the role of the language teacher? Without hoping to provide a final answer to these questions, this book will suggest a new and promising approach to foreign language learning (FLL) centred around the autonomous use of language corpora, state-of-the-art technological resources developed for linguistic research and computational applications, which are now available for educational purposes as well.
