Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Corpus Glossary The utmost brevity was stipulated for this edition. We provide text and apparatus criticus, but (professedly) nothing more. The reader may seek explanations of difficult words in Goetz' Thesaurus Glossarum and the great Latin Thesaurus; of anglo-saxon puzzles in Sweet's Old English Texts and the index of Anglia, etc.; al though our discovery of the source of each gloss will facilitate the solution or at least the new treatment of many of these problems and send to limbo many magazine-articles. Until the full fruits of this discovery have been reaped it seems premature to include notes on anglo-saxon words (a thing beyond our power) or a scientific anglo-saxon Index. Some competent Anglicist will, we hope, in the near future make a comprehensive survey of the anglo-saxon side of this glossary. And a final treatment of the all-latin items borrowed from Abstrusa and Abolita is impossible until these two glossaries have been edited or at least analysed. The Prolegomena, which could not be brief, had to be excluded. They will be found in an English Philological Society Publication ('the Corpus, Epinal, Erfurt and Leyden Glossaries, ' Oxford, 1921) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This alphabetic guide provides definitions and discussion of key terms used in corpus linguistics. Corpus data is being used in a growing number of English and Linguistics departments which have no record of past research with corpus data. This is the first comprehensive glossary of the many specialist terms in corpus linguistics and will be useful for corpus linguists and non corpus linguists alike. Clearly written, by a team of experienced academics in the field, the glossary provides full coverage of both traditional and contemporary terminology.
