The aim of this international conference conference is to bring together academics from around the world, and from the Asia Pacific area in particular, in order to report on the varied developments in the use of corpora in linguistics, language learning, and translation studies. Some countries have a number of well-developed projects related to the theoretical and applied aspects of corpus analysis; other countries are just starting to develop corpus resources. Through this conference, we will provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and expertise and lay the foundations for future developments in the application of corpus resources in Asia and the Pacific. In addition, we hope the meeting will lead to the establishment of a circulating biennial conference. The themes for the conference are: ·        corpora and language learning ·        translation corpora ·        corpora and the web ·        corpora and discourse analysis ·        learner corpora ·        usage-based linguistics ·        theoretical issues in corpus analysis http://corpling.com/conf/   Averil Coxhead, School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies Phone: +64-4-463 5625 Room 403, von Zedlitz Building, Victoria University of Wellington PO Box 600, Wellington 6140, New Zealand ------ End of Forwarded Message
