25-minute presentation

Using Corpora as a Consolidatory Resource and Tool

Sat, Sep 11, 13:45-14:10 Asia/Tokyo Zoom BR2

This presentation looks at one example of the fluidity of syntactic functionality and how we should always approach grammar in a descriptive rather than prescriptive way. Teacher intuition is not always reliable, and the technology today allows for professionals to build their explicit knowledge of authentic language in a way which is immediately beneficial.
