Citations in the corpus

• Formulaic Language in Learner Corpora (2012, methodology): “Corpus linguistic tools and methods have been instrumental in establishing the links between formulaic language and text structuring (e.g., Biber & Barbieri, 2007; Conrad & Biber, 2004; Simpson-Vlach & Ellis, 2010).”
• Unsupervised Domain Clusters in Pretrained Language Models (2020, background): “This may be expected as the subtitles corpus mainly includes transcriptions of spoken, conversational language, and “conversation tends to have more verbs, more personal pronouns, and more questions” (Conrad and Biber, 2005).”
• Lexical bundles in university spoken and written registers (2007, methodology): “, DeCarrico & Nattinger, 1988; Khuwaileh, 1999; Nattinger & DeCarrico, 1992; Schmitt, 2004; Simpson, 2004; Simpson & Mendis, 2003). These studies are part of a growing research tradition focusing on the use of multi-word pre-fabricated expressions in English (see the reviews in Ellis, 1996; Howarth,”
• The Processing of Formulaic Sequences by Second Language Speakers. (2007, methodology): “The 26 formulas were from several corpus-based studies (e.g., Biber & Conrad, 1999; Cortes, 2004; Lenk, 1999).”
• Not just ‘small potatoes’: Knowledge of the idiomatic meanings of collocations (2017, background): “However, the frequency school’s highlighting of statistical metrics means that they have typically not considered semantics to any great extent (although, as exceptions to this, see Conrad & Biber, 2004; Hoey, 2005).”
