[灌水] download of LiteCorpus

Before downloading, could you tell us the sampling strategy of the corpus? In other words, what are included in the corpus? Is it a general-purpose corpus at all?

Thank you so much for sharing, however.

Thank you very much for your sharing it with us, however, I am as anxious to know more about your corpus as xujiajin.

Thank you very much for your great contribution! Could you provide us with a detailed description of it?
 
LiteCorpus is just a
random, stupid collection of texts,
usually, works of great writers
during the past 200 hundred years
(which sounds like the sampling strategy).
 
I have done some preliminary searches， the results incredibly large， but is it a corpus in the sense of modern corpus linguistics? What else can we do with it, besides for English teaching?

It is something without any head info,
and the tagging accuracy is not as high
as the commercially published ones,
I think. (Well, actually there're many
tagging mistakes in BNC, and sometimes
with a very high rate, like what I said about
"zips": 5 out of 14.)
You can use it as you do with BNC, doing
IE, etc.
 
Thank u ,ineedgerf. You have done an amazing job by altruistically sharing with us your tagged corpora, Colen, litecorpus, both slim and tagged. BTW, I am curious about the way you tagged the data. Probably I should have searched corpus4u for the info about it, but I still would like to ask you for the help:how can we get the TOSCA/LOB you strongly recommended? MTIA
 
Dear ineedgerf, we would like you to do some favor to us in two aspects:
1. Could you kindly share your favorite tagger(tosca/lob) with us, as we could not get access to the suggested website to have it downloaded; and
2. Could you pls provide us with a name list of the text books that you use for Colen. MTIA
 
THE server where TOSCA/LOB lived cannot be accessed, maybe.
This might mean that the tagger will not no longer be free. If so
a free offer of it is not allowed.

COLEN includes:
College English (an old version published by WJ; books 1-4)
College English (a completely different version by WJ; part of the series)
New College English (by FLTRP; books 1-4)
21 Century College English (books 1-4)

All these can be identified by their names.
