    Part 2: swearing and gender

    Can I know how do you select the key words in terms of swearing for instance?
    as a non-native speaker, how would I know the swearing words to search for at the first place?

    Unfortunately I don't have any experience in using corpora in teaching , but I definitely think it would be of a great assistance to language learning

    Part 2: building the corpus and initial analysis

    Thanks for the session!
    just to check my understanding, so tabloids and broadsheets are like corpora including newspaper articles which are already gathered , but when we use the keywords like RASIM we ask to extract from these two corpora only articles relevant to the RASIM and then I dig deeper by using the corpus tool like LancsBox to get the keywords...

    OPTIONAL videos

    The videos are unavailable. Is it because of regional restrictions or what could be the reason? is it possible to share a drive link for them?

    Part 3: types of corpora

    Is there any kind of corpus project that a linguist can be part of in the university of Lancaster ? Is there a way to have contact with anyone in charge? As I have a very interesting research idea related to monitor corpus
