This paper is a reply to Charles Owen's paper in Volume 14, Issue 2, entitled 'Corpus-based grammar and the Heineken effect'. We answer him on many of his specific points about the accuracy of the lists in the Collins Cobuild English Grammar, and argue that such lists remain a valuable means of showing the interdependence of grammar and meaning. We go on to discuss ergative verbs giving an extended example of the importance of corpus-driven grammatical description and explanation: without a large corpus of natural language, a full and accurate picture of this interesting class of verbs would not be possible.
